Found carry-ons near the State Capitol, Pierre
I was out for a late afternoon walk along East Capitol Avenue and stopped to rest on the steps of the State Capitol around 4:15 p.m. on Wednesday when I spotted two carry-ons tucked behind a bench overlooking the Missouri River. They’re a black roller bag and a grey duffel, both scuffed from travel. I checked for a tag but there was nothing clearly identifying an owner, so I kept watch from a safe distance and moved the bags to a more visible spot near the Capitol entrance, hoping a rightful owner would notice. It felt unreal at first, but the relief when I decided to post this here was huge.
Lost toy train near the Capitol in Pierre
I lost a small wooden toy train somewhere in Pierre around 8:30 p.m. last Sunday, and my stomach drops every time I think about it. The train is a blue engine with a red undercarriage, a few scratches on the side, and it sits in a small black plastic box. I last held it while strolling the riverfront boardwalk by the Capitol Building, near the Missouri River overlook. This train was a gift from my grandmother, and I miss it more than I expected; I’d be grateful to have it back where it belongs.
Lost wrist watches by Capitol steps, Pierre.
Today at 9:45 a.m., I found myself at the Missouri Riverfront near the State Capitol steps in Pierre when I realized my two wrist watches were missing from the cafe table. One is a silver Timex with a cracked face and a brown leather strap; the other is a small black watch with a blue dial that my dad gave me. I’ve worn them almost every day for years, and losing them feels like losing a piece of family history. If they’re out there, I’m holding onto hope they’ll be returned to the riverfront or the Capitol area so they can come home.
Found utensils beside Capitol Ave, Pierre.
This afternoon, around 4:15 p.m., I found a small set of utensils on the sidewalk along Capitol Avenue in Pierre, right by the State Capitol. There's a fork, a spoon, and a knife, all a bit greasy from a quick meal outdoors. The knife has a chipped edge, which makes me think someone was eating outside not long ago. It felt odd to stumble upon someone else's items, and I hope the owner will see this post and reclaim them.
Lost board games in Pierre, SD
Yesterday around 4:45 PM I realized I lost my board games from the shelf at the Pierre Public Library's reading room. It is a mix of family favorites—the kind we bring to Sunday afternoons in Central SD. The box is a sturdy wooden case with a faded sticker; inside, you will find maps, dice, and a few pawns from various games. I am hoping someone found them and kept them safe, because these games are part of so many cherished memories.
Lost hat near the Capitol, Pierre.
On Friday, around 5:40 PM, I was walking from the Missouri River overlook toward the State Capitol in Pierre when the wind pulled my hat off. It's a charcoal gray knit with a small blue emblem on the front—a simple, well-worn piece I wear all winter. I retraced my steps along the Capitol sidewalk and down the steps, stopping by the granite railings where I paused to sip coffee. I must have set it on a bench or maybe the railing, because I can't find it now. It feels silly to admit, but that hat carries a lot of memories from our trip here.
Lost Breeds near Capitol, Pierre.
At about 8:15 a.m. this morning, I was walking along Sioux Avenue toward the South Dakota Capitol when I realized my binder labeled Breeds was missing from my bag. It’s a black binder with a red spine, full of notes on dog breeds and training tips. I last saw it near the Capitol steps by Riverfront Park, and the thought of someone else flipping through my notes makes me anxious. Those pages support a small rescue project I’m running, and I’d be grateful to have them back. I’m hoping someone finds this post and can help reunite me with it through the site.
Lost: Studs near the State Capitol, Pierre.
I’m Mia Collins. I lost a pair of small silver studs last Friday around 6:15 p.m. near the State Capitol steps in Pierre. They were a gift from my grandmother and mean a lot to me, so I’m holding onto hope they’ll be found. I remember stepping away to take a call at the sidewalk cafe by the capitol entrance and must have set them down on my jacket before hurrying off. If someone picked them up, I’d be grateful to get them back.
Found GPS devices near Missouri Riverfront, Pierre SD
I found two GPS devices on a bench along the Missouri Riverfront Trail near the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center in Pierre around 6:20 p.m. on Sunday. One device is in a black hard case with a car charger, the other in a blue fleece pouch; both have screens that still light up. They seem important to someone who was planning a trip or keeping maps, and I hope the owner can recognize them soon. I hope the owner can recognize them soon.
Lost ties by Capitol, Pierre
LOST: I was at the Capitol Building steps in Pierre around 9:15 a.m. today, tying a navy blue silk tie before a job interview, and somehow it slipped from my collar as I walked toward Main Street. It’s a simple thing, but it mattered to me for the day. The tie has a thin silver tie-pin and a small logo on the lining; it's not just any tie—it was a gift from my grandmother. If anyone found it, please think of it like a compass needle pointing back to my memories.
FOUND Equipment for Various Sports
I was walking along the riverfront trail in Pierre around 6:45 pm on Tuesday when I spotted a bag stuffed with sports gear under a bench near the Missouri River overlook. Inside there were a yellow helmet, knee pads, a couple of racquets, a duffel bag, and a water bottle. It looked like someone planned a city league practice. I’m posting this as found so the owner can claim it. Please check if this sounds like your gear, and reach out through the site if it does so we can arrange a safe handoff.
Lost hand tools near Capitol, Pierre
I was finishing a quick repair job on Friday around 5:45 p.m. in the Pierre Capitol area when I realized my hand tools were missing from the bed of my pickup. The toolbox held a hammer, a red screwdriver set, a few wrenches, and a tape measure—the things I rely on for everything from screen-door repairs to porch projects. I checked the sidewalk along Capitol Avenue, walked Riverside Park, and even asked a couple of passersby, but the tools never turned up. If someone happened to grab them for safekeeping, I would be deeply grateful to have them returned through the site.
Found holiday decorations in Pierre
I was walking along Sioux Avenue near the Missouri Riverfront in downtown Pierre around 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday when I found a tote bag stuffed with holiday decorations—a tinsel garland, a string of multicolored lights, and a couple of red bows. It looked like someone was getting ready for a Christmas display, but their stuff was left behind. I turned the tote in to the Pierre City Hall Lost and Found near the Capitol Building, hoping the owner sees this and can reclaim their decorations soon.
Lost travel adapters during a Pierre stop.
I lost my travel adapters last Friday around 6:40 PM while wandering near the Missouri Riverfront and the South Dakota State Capitol in Pierre. They’re a compact gray set with USB-C and USB-A plugs, one with a blue cable coiled around it. I’d been by the Capitol steps and the Discovery Center, and I’m worried they’ll turn up nowhere else. If anyone found a slim gray adapter set with a small sticker from a cross-country trip, please hold onto them for me.
Found sheet music near Capitol Building steps, Pierre
I found a bundle of sheet music along Main Street in Pierre around 3:15 p.m. yesterday, lying on the Capitol Building steps. There’s no name visible, just crinkled pages and a few pencil annotations. It looks like something a student or local musician carried to practice, and it would mean a lot to the owner to have it back. I left it in a safe spot nearby so the site could help reconnect the right person with their music.
