Sheet Music left behind in Northwest Kansas

I lost my sheet music folder in Northwest Kansas around 2:00 p.m. Sunday at the community center by Main Street. It contains pieces I’ve been rehearsing for a small local gig and a few markings from my mentor. I retraced my steps to the library steps and the sidewalk outside the center, but it wasn’t there. If someone found it, please hand it in to the lost-and-found so I can pick it up and keep playing.

Lost: 'Wild and Domestic' in Northwest KS

On Tuesday around 4:30 p.m., I was browsing the Oakley Main Street Market when I realized my paperback 'Wild and Domestic' was missing from my tote. I hurried back through the aisles, past the grain elevator and the old soda shop, hoping to spot it on a shelf or a chair, but it was gone. The book is a gift from my grandmother, and it’s become a small source of comfort during long harvest season in this part of Kansas. If it turns up, I’ll swing by to pick it up and share a cup of thanks with whoever found it.

Lost Travel Visas in Northwest KS

I was refueling at the rest area off I-70 near Colby around 6:40 p.m. on Tuesday when I realized my Travel Visas were missing from a brown leather folder with a red spine. Those documents are essential for my upcoming trip, and I kept the folder in the passenger seat. I searched the rest area, asked at the shop, and retraced my steps to the parking lot, but nothing turned up. The clock is ticking, and I'm worried about being delayed. If anyone saw a brown folder or the contents, please leave a note on the site. Your help would mean the world to me.

Navy blue evening gown with beaded neckline

I lost my navy blue evening gown yesterday around 5:15pm. It's a floor-length Eliza J dress, satin belt with a small silver buckle, and a beaded neckline that catches the light. I think I had it near the Fox Theatre on Main Street in Hays, Northwest KS, after the charity gala let out. It's a size US 6, and inside the lining there's a tiny embroidered label with the initials 'A.H.'—plus the belt buckle has a slightly scuffed silver finish. It means a lot to me—this dress was a gift from my aunt—and I'm really hoping someone picked it up and will return it.

Black Ray-Ban round glasses with blue case

I lost my black Ray-Ban round glasses yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart Supercenter on East 41st Street in Hays, KS. They're black acetate frames with a slim gold bridge, about medium width, and the inside of the right temple has initials 'A.K.' engraved. They came with a blue zip pouch and a light-blue hard case; the case has a small dent in the corner. The lenses are in decent shape, but there's a faint smudge on the left lens. I really need them back—these are my day-to-day glasses for work and reading, and they've been with me for years.

Blue Nike size-5 soccer ball with initials

I lost my blue-and-white Nike size-5 soccer ball yesterday around 3pm near the Fort Hays State University soccer fields behind the campus on Hall Street in Hays, Northwest Kansas. It's well-used, with a few scuffs and a small dent on the white panel near the Nike swoosh, and I wrote my initials 'JP' with a black Sharpie on one panel. There’s also a thin orange marker line along the seam that makes it stand out. It has sentimental value because we use it for weekend pickup games — I really need it back to keep playing. If anyone found it, please reach out; I’d be grateful to get it back.
