Lost postcards I collected during a Harrisonburg trip.

Last night around 3:15 PM, I was sorting through postcards from our trip to Harrisonburg when I realized a few were missing from my tote. I had left the tote on a bench near Court Square while I grabbed a quick coffee and snapped a photo of the courthouse. When I returned, the postcards were gone and I felt a real sting of loss—their images capture our family day together. This morning at 7:40 AM I walked the block along North Main Street again, checking the benches, the gift shop stool outside, and the little fountain area. If someone found them, please know how special they are to me and return them to the site.

Found Breeds near Court Square

This morning around 10:20 a.m., I was near Court Square in downtown Harrisonburg when I found a binder labeled Breeds lying on a bench. The binder held dog-breed profiles, adoption papers, and a few vet contact numbers tucked inside. It looked like someone had put it down during a morning meet-up, and it struck me how important that information is to a rescue or a family. I picked it up, kept it safe, and posted it here so the owner can reclaim it through the site.

LOST equipment near Court Square fountain

Last Friday after our late practice I realized my bag with sports gear was missing. I left it on the bench by the fountain at Court Square, downtown Harrisonburg, around 7:20 pm. Inside were soccer cleats, shin guards, a basketball, and a water bottle with my initials. It's not fancy gear, but it keeps our weekend pickup games going, and the cleats were handed down from my older brother. I’ve retraced my steps through City Park and along Court Street, but the bag never turned up. I keep hoping someone who was there on the plaza that evening might remember the bag and kept it somewhere safe.

Found appliances left on a porch, Harrisonburg

On a chilly Thursday evening around 7:30 p.m., I found a bundle of appliances left on a porch near Court Square in Harrisonburg. It looked like a mismatched set—a dusty blender, a toaster, and a compact microwave—stacked neatly in a blue tote, with a stray leaf sticking to the cord. The sight felt oddly personal, like a late-night move had gone wrong. I brought them to my porch on West Market Street and waited, hoping the owner would recognize them. It gave me a small sense of purpose in the quiet that settles over downtown after sunset.

Found toasters in Harrisonburg, VA

While cleaning out the volunteer kitchen at Court Square on Saturday around 11:10 a.m., I found two toasters tucked behind a stack of coffee mugs in a dusty corner. They looked recently used, with a few burnt crumbs and a coffee ring on one handle. I turned them in to the Harrisonburg campus Lost & Found so the owner could claim them. I hope this helps the person who misses their mornings as much as I miss mine when something as simple as a toaster goes missing.

Lost stamps near Court Square, Harrisonburg.

I realized my stamps were missing this morning after a hurried walk to Court Square in Harrisonburg around 9:45 AM. They were tucked inside a small red album with a brass clasp, the kind that holds a dozen keepsakes from trips abroad. Some of the stamps are rare and hold memories from family letters, so losing them feels personal and heartbreaking. If someone happens to see this listing and kept them by accident, I would be grateful to have them back via the site.
