Lost & found sporting goods in Hampton Roads

Lost equipment for various sports near Virginia Beach.

I lost my equipment for various sports somewhere along the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. Tuesday at 6:15 PM, I left a navy duffel on a bench near the start of the boardwalk while I stepped away to stretch and take a quick photo. The bag is packed with gear for multiple sports: basketball shoes, shin guards, cleats, a rolled-up yoga mat, and a folded tennis racket. I retraced my steps from the boardwalk to 24th Street, then along the sand toward the fishing pier, but I didn’t see it. It isn’t just gear to me; it’s what I use to decompress after work and stay active. I’m hoping someone handed it in at the Oceanfront so it can be returned.
