LOST

Blue Jansport backpack with red pin

I lost my blue Jansport backpack yesterday around 3pm. It's standard-sized with gray trim, a little worn from daily campus life. On the front pocket there's a red enamel mountain pin and a small green 'Adventurer' sticker. Inside are a spiral notebook, some math worksheets, and a photo of my dad; it's sentimental and I really need it back. If anyone found it near the Mankato Public Library on Front Street, please reach out—this backpack means a lot to me.

Navy compact umbrella with yellow tag

I lost my compact travel umbrella yesterday afternoon around 3pm near the Blue Earth County Courthouse on 4th Street in Mankato. It's a TrekLight compact umbrella, charcoal gray fabric with a sky-blue tip and a small dent at the tip from a windy day. The handle has a bright yellow fabric tag with the initials 'AR' tied around it. It’s lightweight but folds up nicely into a small black case that has a couple of city stamps from past trips. It was a gift from my grandmother and it means a lot to me, so I’d really appreciate finding it.

Gold-tone bracelet with heart charm

I lost my gold-tone bracelet yesterday around 3pm near Riverfront Park's gazebo on Front Street in Mankato. It's a slim two-tone bracelet, gold outer band with a small silver heart charm, and a tiny turquoise bead near the clasp. The back of the heart charm is engraved with the initial 'A', and there's a faint scratch along the outer edge from life on the go. It’s about 6.5 inches long and a tad tarnished, but still meaningful—my grandmother gave it to me last year. I really need it back; if you found it, email me at [email protected] and we can arrange a safe handoff.

Sunburst Yamaha FG800 acoustic guitar

I lost my sunburst Yamaha FG800 acoustic guitar yesterday around 3pm near the MSU Library on Stadium Road in Mankato. It's in a black hard-shell case, and a red guitar strap with white stars is attached. The guitar has a small dent on the lower bout and a sun-shaped sticker near the soundhole. This guitar is sentimental—my grandfather bought it for me before he passed—and I really need it back.

Silver compass pendant on black leather cord

I lost my silver compass pendant on a black leather cord yesterday around 3pm near the Riverfront Park overlook off Front Street, in downtown Mankato, close to the Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center. It's a tiny compass with a blue enamel dial and a small dent along the rim; on the back, the initials 'A.Y.' are etched and easy to spot. The cord is a little worn, giving it a vintage feel, and this piece means a lot to me because it was my grandfather's gift. If anyone found it, I'd really appreciate getting it back, it has sentimental value and I'm hoping to reunite with it soon.

Black Samsonite 24-inch suitcase with blue airline tag

I found a black Samsonite 24-inch hard-shell suitcase this morning around 9:15am in the parking lot behind Riverfront Park on Front Street, Mankato. It's in decent shape but has a few scrapes on the bottom and a bright red telescoping handle. The exterior sports a small sailing-boat sticker on the top panel and a blue airline tag still attached to the zipper pull. Inside, the lining is clean and there are a few packing cubes tucked in. If this is yours, leave a note here and I'll arrange a safe handoff — I know how important travel gear can be and I'd love to get it back to its owner.

Mid-century walnut coffee table with brass trim

I found a mid-century walnut coffee table this afternoon around 2:15pm behind the Riverfront Park pavilion on Front Street, Mankato. It's about 48 inches long, 20 inches wide, and sits on brass-trimmed legs. There's a single shallow drawer with a brass pull, and the top has a few light scratches plus a small dent on the front edge. On the bottom there's a maker's stamp reading 'Horizon Home'—pretty distinctive. If this belongs to someone, I'm hoping to help reunite it; I can meet near Riverfront Park or the Main Street coffee shop to hand it off.

Found: gray Anker PowerCore 20,000mAh power bank

I found a gray Anker PowerCore 20,000mAh power bank this afternoon around 2:40 pm in the parking lot behind the Target on Madison Ave in Mankato. It's in a matte gray shell with a bright blue USB-C port and a small sticker with the initials 'AK' on the underside. It was lying near the cart corrals, a little dusty from the lot but otherwise in great condition. It looks like it's been used, but it's clearly well cared for and probably means a lot to the owner who relies on it for daily work or travel.

Black North Face backpack found near Riverfront Park

I found a black North Face backpack this afternoon around 3:15 pm near the Riverfront Park gazebo off Front Street in downtown Mankato. It's a medium-sized pack with a red inner lining, two side mesh pockets, and a small tear at the bottom. It has bright orange zipper pulls and an inside pocket sticker that says 'Adventure Awaits' so it's easy to spot. Inside I found a spare set of keys on a leather keychain and a worn photo, which makes me think someone’s missing it and could really use it back. If this is yours, message me here with the distinctive features to confirm it's yours, and I'll get it back to you.

Monogrammed cream duvet cover with navy piping

I found a queen-size cream duvet cover this afternoon around 3:15 PM behind the Target on Madison Ave in Mankato. It's a soft cotton blend with navy piping along the edges and a small silver zipper along the bottom seam. There's a tiny monogram 'A.Y.' stitched in the bottom-right corner, and a faint coffee stain near the seam that I can point out. The fabric feels like good quality, and it's in pretty good condition overall. It seems like someone put effort into it, so I figured I’d post it here in case it’s theirs. If this might be yours, drop me a note here and we can coordinate a meetup nearby—happy to meet at Lincoln Park or a nearby coffee shop.
