Lost skirts near Lake Mirror Park
I lost my skirts around 6:45 p.m. on Saturday, walking from Munn Park toward Lake Mirror Park in Lakeland. I last saw them on a bench near the Lake Mirror gazebo, a tan cotton A-line with a tiny floral pattern and a frayed hem, just past the white picket fence. I remember tracing the path along the brick sidewalk by the water, hoping they’d turn up on a passerby’s chair by the gazebo. It felt silly and sad at the same time—the skirt was a favorite, goes with the navy blouse I wore today. If you spot them, please keep an eye out for them and return them to this listing.
Found: DVDs near Lake Mirror Park
I was walking back to my car at around 5:15 p.m. yesterday, near Lake Mirror Park in Lakeland, when a small stack of DVDs caught my eye on a bench outside the Lakeland Public Library. The cases were a little weathered and some spines were faded, but the discs looked cared for. I flipped through a few to see if there was a name or a clue, but nothing jumped out. It felt like a tiny mystery, and I hoped someone was missing them right now. I carried them to the library desk and waited briefly, hoping the owner would recognize their own collection.
Lost studs near Lake Mirror Park
I’m missing a pair of small gold studs with clear crystals, and I realized they were gone around 7:15 p.m. last Friday. I’d been walking the Lake Mirror Park loop, near the fountain, when I noticed one was missing from my ear and then both from the jewelry box. They were a wedding gift from my grandmother, so they carry sentimental value beyond the shine. I keep imagining them catching the last light on the water and hope someone nearby picked them up and tucked them away safely. If you found them, please think of someone’s memory attached to those tiny stones.
FOUND: Sheet Music in Lakeland
I found this sheet music on the ground outside the Lakeland Public Library, near Hollis Garden, around 6:15 p.m. on Tuesday. It’s a worn, blue-bound page with a few creases and a name scribbled on the cover I barely recognized. I paused for a moment, imagining the musician who must be looking for it, and I tucked it into my bag for safekeeping until I could post it here. If the owner recognizes their tunes, I hope they’ll know it’s still out there, waiting to be played again.
Lost: two keyboards near Lake Mirror Park, Lakeland
I was at Lake Mirror Park around 6:15 p.m. last Friday when a gust tugged at my backpack and my two keyboards slipped away from the bag. One is an 88-key weighted keyboard with a red corner sticker; the other is a compact 61-key controller I use for practice. The bag is blue denim with a frayed strap and a small dolphin sticker on the zipper. I retraced the promenade by the fountain, past the benches along the lake, hoping they hadn’t rolled too far. I’ve got gigs to prep for and the thought of them out there makes my stomach drop. If you’ve seen them around Lake Mirror or on the paved trail by the water, please keep an eye out.
Lost: Holiday Decorations near Munn Park, Lakeland
I was decorating my porch near Lake Mirror in Lakeland last Saturday around 7:15 pm and realized my holiday decorations were missing. A gust of wind knocked the garlands off the railing and the metal storage box slid toward the driveway as I turned to grab more lights. My heart sank because those decorations carry memories from family gatherings and celebrations. I spent the next hour walking the block and checking nearby porches, hoping they didn’t end up in someone else’s hands.
LOST: Ties in Lakeland
I realized my father's ties are missing after I left downtown Lakeland. Last Wednesday around 5:50 PM I was near Munn Park, the historic green space downtown, right by the benches outside the Lakeland Public Library. The set includes a blue paisley tie and a burgundy one with a slim stripe, kept in a small fabric pouch with a label. Those ties are a fragile connection to my dad, worn during family events and school interviews alike. If you found them, please let me know through the site so I can arrange a safe return.
Lost: Airline travel folder at airport
I lost an airline travel folder at Lakeland Linder International Airport in Lakeland, Florida, around 6:30 pm on Thursday. It is a small leather folder with the airline logo on the cover and contains travel itineraries and loyalty cards. I retraced the baggage claim area and the curb outside Terminal A, but I could not find it. This folder matters beyond money; it holds important plans for an upcoming trip. I would be grateful for any help locating it through the site so we can arrange a safe handoff in Lakeland.
Found felines near Lake Mirror Park, Lakeland
This evening, around 8:15 p.m., I was walking home near Lake Mirror Park in Lakeland when two felines wandered up and started following me. They looked healthy and curious, a bit skittish at first, but they settled on my porch once we reached my place. The cats are a friendly orange with a white chest and a gray one with a striped tail; neither wore a collar. I’m sharing this to help reunite them with their owner, and I’ve kept them safe while hoping someone can identify them by their appearance. If these are yours, please report this listing through the site so you can be connected.
Lost Student ID near Lake Mirror Park, Lakeland
I lost my Student ID this Monday at 3:25 p.m. while walking the Lake Mirror Park loop. I’d just left the Polk Museum of Art and was heading toward the lakefront cafe when it slipped from my pocket. The card is in a light-blue lanyard with the university logo, and I’m anxious about exams and entry to the student center. If it was found along the Lake Mirror Park entrance, I’d be grateful for its return through the proper channels.
Lost radios in Lakeland, FL
I was at Munn Park near the gazebo by the Lakeland Public Library at 7:20 p.m. yesterday when I realized my radios were missing from my backpack. They’re two handheld units in a gray Pelican case; one has a dent in the corner and a sticker with my call sign. I rely on them for quick, on-the-ground updates during events, so losing them tonight felt like a dent in my evening and left me worried about my shift. I hope whoever found them kept them safe and turned them in where they’d be easy to return to me.
Lost lapel pins near downtown Lakeland
Today at 3:10 p.m., I realized my lapel pins were LOST while I was snapping photos along the Lake Mirror Park path in downtown Lakeland. They’re small keepsakes from a volunteer event and a weekend trip, and I’m really hoping someone picked them up. I retraced my steps across Munn Park, scanning the brick sidewalks and the benches near the courthouse for any glint of metal. If they’re found near the gazebo by the lake, they’ll mean a lot to me.
Found keys with blue lanyard and lighthouse charm
I found a set of keys this morning around 9am in the parking lot behind the Lakeland Public Library on Oak Street. There's a blue nylon lanyard with a small lighthouse charm and a black USB drive tucked between a couple of keys. One key has an orange paracord wrap and another is a house key with a tiny red tag marked 'No. 42'. There are a few keys for homes and a car, and I’d love to get them back to their owner—message me and I’ll meet at the library to return them.

Framed 16x20 landscape painting found
I found a framed 16x20 landscape painting this afternoon around 2:15pm outside the Lakeland Public Library on Kentucky Ave near the main entrance. It's an acrylic-on-canvas piece in a slightly worn gold-leaf frame, with a couple of edge scuffs and a tiny coffee ring on the matte. The scene shows a warm sunset over Lake Mirror with a red boathouse and tall pines; there's a faint pencil signature 'A.R.' in the lower-right corner and a back label that reads 'The Last Light' from a local arts fair in 2022. If someone recognizes it, please get in touch—I’d love to help this belong to its owner again.
