I lost my blue Wilson baseball glove yesterday around 3pm near the Lafayette City Park baseball fields, behind the concession stand by the bleachers on Main Street and 9th Ave. It's an 11.5-inch glove, mostly blue with black lacing and a small white scuff on the palm from last season. Inside the wrist there are 'LJ' initials written in white Sharpie, plus a tiny tear near the pinkie. It means a lot to me—it was a gift from my dad and has seen a lot of practice and games; I’d really appreciate getting it back if someone picked it up.
I lost my gold-tone hoop earrings yesterday around 3pm near the Lafayette Public Library on Main Street by the fountain outside the cafe. They’re about 1 inch in diameter with a hammered texture, and one earring has an initial 'A' engraved on the back. They’re slightly scuffed from wear but otherwise look fine. They were a gift from my grandmother and mean a lot to me, so I really need to get them back. If anyone found them, I’d be forever grateful.
I’m posting because I lost my black North Face Borealis backpack yesterday around 3pm near the Lafayette Library on Main Street. It's a medium-sized backpack, charcoal gray with blue zipper pulls and a small front pocket that bears a white North Face patch. Inside, there's a water bottle sleeve, a cracked phone screen protector, and a well-worn travel notebook with a spring trip plan. It has sentimental value—my grandmother's photo and a USB-C charger are inside. There's a tiny fox-shaped orange keychain hanging from the zipper; the bottom corner is slightly frayed. If anyone found it, please message me—I really need it back!
I was practicing at the Lafayette Library and Learning Center yesterday around 3pm when I realized my sunburst violin was gone from the case. It's a Yamaha 4/4 student violin in a sunburst finish, with a faint dent on the top edge and a tiny scuff along the scroll. The bow is a bit frayed and the case is black with a worn zipper, and inside the lid there's blue velvet lining and a sticker with my initials 'MC'. This violin means a lot to me—it was a gift from my grandfather and it helps me unwind after rehearsals. If anyone found it, please drop me a line; I really need it back, it was last seen near the library steps on Golden Gate Way in Lafayette.
I lost my navy blue compact umbrella yesterday around 3pm. It's a Totes Metro Auto-Open umbrella, folds to about 9 inches, with a navy canopy that has a subtle white wave pattern near the tips; the wooden handle has a few nicks. There's a brass compass charm dangling from the wrist strap and a sky-blue sleeve with a tiny embroidered pine tree—easy to spot if you find it. I was walking from the Lafayette Public Library on Main Street toward Market Square when I must have dropped it, and it means a lot to me because it was a gift from my grandmother; I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back.
Found a glossy purple concert ticket this afternoon around 3:15pm on the sidewalk outside the Lafayette Theatre on Main Street, near the Lafayette Bookstore. It's for the Lafayette Music Fest—Section GA, Row 2, Seat 11—with a purple gradient design and a readable barcode (742190). There's a tiny tear along the top edge and a coffee stain on the bottom left corner. I picked it up and tucked it into my jacket pocket, because missing a show can feel awful. If this is yours, I’d love to help you get it back—shoot me the name on the ticket and the last four digits of the barcode, and I’ll reunite it with you.
I found a backpack this afternoon around 4:15pm behind the Lafayette Station bus stop on Jefferson Street, just past the downtown farmers market. It’s a blue North Face backpack, medium-sized (about 18 inches tall) with a black base and bright orange zipper pulls on the front pocket. The bag is a bit worn at the bottom corners but clean inside, no strong odor. Inside I spotted a spiral notebook, a student ID with the name Alex Rivera, and a small pineapple-shaped keychain attached to the zipper. There’s a USB-C cable sticking out of the side pocket. If this is yours, reach out and we’ll figure out the best way to reunite you with it.
I found a red knit scarf this afternoon around 4:15pm near the Lafayette Public Library on Main Street, by the bike racks outside the entrance. It's a bright, chunky scarf, about 60 inches long and 6 inches wide, with a white snowflake pattern along the edges and a small silver snowflake charm stitched near the hem. The yarn is soft but shows a few pills from wear, and there's a stray pine needle caught in the fringe, which helped me spot it. If this belongs to you, I'd love to help get it back—describe a unique detail or the charm to claim it.
I found a pair of silver hoop earrings with small pearl charms this afternoon around 2:30pm. They were lying on the ground near the benches outside the Lafayette Market Square Coffee on Main Street, just across from the Lafayette Library. The hoops are about 12mm in diameter, smooth and shiny, with a tiny pearl charm that swings when you move. One earring has a faint engraving on the inner rim—'LJ'—and there’s a barely noticeable scratch on the back of the other. They look in decent condition overall. If the owner sees this, I’d really love to return them—they probably mean a lot to someone.
I found a colorful parakeet perched on the fence in my backyard in Lafayette yesterday. It's friendly and seems to have been well-cared for, with bright green and yellow feathers. I believe it may have escaped from someone's home. If you recognize this little bird, please reach out!
