lost passport near MSU campus, Mankato

Last Friday around 1:45 PM, I was juggling a coffee order and a quick errand near the Centennial Student Union on the MSU campus in Mankato when I realized my passport was missing from my tote. It was tucked in a brown leather folder with a few travel receipts—the kind of thing you think you’ll always have but forget about in a rush. I’m stressing about upcoming plans and hoping someone handed it in at the security desk or the student union lost-and-found. If you’ve seen it, please hold onto it; I’d be forever grateful.

Found: Chargers near Sibley Park, Mankato

I FOUND a neat pile of chargers after I wrapped up chores and sat near a bench by Sibley Park in Mankato last Tuesday around 6:15 p.m. The cords were tangled with a gray backpack strap and a blue USB-C brick poking out. I checked for a name tag, but there wasn’t one. I left them on the bench and posted here, hoping the owner can recognize them and come claim them through the site. It’s a small moment of relief to help someone reconnect with their everyday gear.

FOUND: Sheet Music near Center Street, Riverfront Park

I found a stack of sheet music under a bench on Center Street by Riverfront Park this morning around 9:15 a.m. The papers are well‑loved—sticky notes in pencil marks, cramped tempo numbers, and a page torn at the edge. There are pieces for piano, some for guitar, and a coffee‑stained receipt tucked between the pages. The folder is worn, a bit damp from last night’s drizzle, the cover showing the name 'L. Chen' in faded ink. It felt personal, like someone was between practice sessions and a recital. I left them on the bench where I found them, hoping the owner or a kind passerby would recognize the music and claim them soon.

Blue reflective dog collar found

Found this blue reflective dog collar this afternoon around 2:45pm in the parking lot behind Target on Madison Ave in Mankato. It's a medium nylon collar, vivid royal blue with a white reflective stripe and a small brass ID tag stamped 'Roxy'. There’s a faint chew mark on the strap and the buckle shows minor scratches, but it’s otherwise in good condition. The tag has a phone number that’s partly worn off. If this belongs to your dog, I’d really like to get it back to you; we can meet near Riverfront Park or at the Target lot.

Red parka jacket with fur hood

I lost my red parka jacket with a faux fur hood yesterday around 3pm near the Target on Madison Ave in Mankato. It's a size large Columbia coat, bright red with black zippers and a small tear on the left sleeve. There’s a blue enamel snowflake pin on the chest and a hidden inner pocket where I keep a photo of my grandmother. It’s really sentimental—gift from her last winter—and I’ve worn it almost every day since. If anyone found it, I’d be so grateful to get it back; I can be reached here.

Teak coffee table with brass knob

I found a teak coffee table this afternoon around 3:15 pm, sitting on the sidewalk outside the Hy-Vee on Madison Ave near Nicollet Plaza. It's about 42 inches long, 18 inches wide, and 17 inches tall, with a warm honey finish and slightly curved edges. There’s a small drawer with a brass knob on one end and a faint coffee-ring stain in the middle top. A couple of tiny nicks on the corner are the only wear I notice. If this is yours, describe the drawer knob and the coffee ring, and we can arrange pickup near the MSU campus.
