I lost my grey North Face fleece jacket yesterday around 3pm. It’s a men’s medium zip-up, soft fleece, with a blue zipper pull that sticks sometimes. The jacket is in decent condition, just a bit pilled from daily wear, and there’s a small coffee stain on the inside pocket. I was walking from Clarkson University toward Market Street, near the campus bus stop behind the student center, when I last had it. It has sentimental value because it was a gift from my sister. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back!
I was at the Potsdam Public Library on Park Street yesterday around 3pm, paging through a few titles. My blue hardcover edition of The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern vanished from my tote; it’s the one with gold foil on the spine and a pink ribbon bookmark sticking out. There’s a tiny coffee stain along the back cover and a yellow sticker inside that reads 'Property of Priya K.' It’s really sentimental—it was a gift from a friend who helped me through a rough year—and I’d be so grateful to have it back. If you found it, drop a note here and I’ll meet you at the library to pick it up.
I lost my silver Yamaha flute yesterday around 3pm outside the Potsdam Public Library on Market Street. It's a Yamaha YFL-222, silver-plated, with a black hard case and red velvet lining; there are light scratches along the body and a tiny dent near the lip plate. The headjoint cap has my initials 'PR' engraved, and the zipper pull on the case is a bit loose. It means a lot to me—it's been in the family and was a gift from my grandfather; I really need it back.
I lost my navy blue queen-size duvet cover with white piping yesterday around 3pm near the Potsdam Public Library on Park Street. It's a SleepWell duvet cover, smooth cotton with a sturdy zipper, and there's a tiny coffee stain near the zipper pull. There's a SleepWell tag stitched in the bottom corner, and a faint heart outline you can only see when it's inside out. It was a gift from my grandmother, so it means a lot to me, and I'm really hoping to get it back. If you found it, please reach out.
I lost my blue U.S. passport yesterday around 2:15pm near Clarkson University on Park Street in Potsdam. The cover is the standard blue with the gold eagle emblem, and the back has a tiny coffee stain along the edge from a spill at a cafe. The passport itself is in decent shape, but the bottom-right corner has a small dent I’ve never fixed. It’s really important to me because I was about to start a trip, and it carries sentimental value from a family journey years ago. If someone found it, I’d be grateful to get it back as soon as possible; it would mean a lot to have it returned.
I found a pair of black Sony WH-1000XM4 noise-cancelling headphones this afternoon around 2:15pm behind the Potsdam Public Library on Market Street. They’re in pretty good shape, just a faint scuff on the right earcup and a tiny fray in the fabric on the headband. They came with a matte black carrying sleeve, and there’s a bright blue sticker on the zipper pull with the initials 'LJ'—a small but easy identifying feature. I figured someone must be missing them, especially since they were tucked under a bench near the bike racks by the library parking lot. If these are yours, describe the last thing you listened to or the color of your charging cable to prove ownership.
Category: Other Miscellaneous Items. Found a compact gray enamel pocket compass with a neon lime-green clip this afternoon around 3:30pm outside the Potsdam Food Co-op on Market Street in Potsdam. It's about 1.5 inches across, with a tiny scratch on the glass and a dent along the rim. The back is engraved with the initials 'KJ', and there’s a small red fabric lanyard still attached. If this belongs to you, I’d love to get it back—I know how easy it is to misplace a tiny thing like this, and I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner in the Potsdam-Canton-Massena area.
I found a small blue plush dinosaur and a wooden 24-piece puzzle in the parking lot behind the Potsdam Public Library on Market Street this afternoon, around 2:15pm. The dinosaur is about 12 inches tall, bright blue with a yellow belly and a tiny stitched scar on its left leg; the puzzle comes in a red tin with a fox image on the lid. They’re in good condition, a little grass-stained but clean. I figure they belong to a kid who was at the library story hour, and I’d love to help get them back to their owner.
I found a friendly dog this afternoon around 4:15pm wandering near the Potsdam Public Library on Park Street. It's a beagle mix, about 25 pounds, tan with a white chest and a white-tipped tail, wearing a blue harness and a round metal tag that says Milo. He seems well-cared for, wagging his tail and soaking up ear rubs, and he has a small notch scar on his right hind leg. I checked for a microchip but didn't see one. I brought him to a safe spot by the library steps and I'll stay here to help reunite him with his family; if this is your dog, I'm here to help get him home.
I found a ceramic vase yesterday around 4:15 pm behind the Potsdam Farmers Market on Market Street in Potsdam. It's a slender, 9-inch tall vase with a glossy white glaze and hand-painted cobalt blue peonies around the rim. There’s a tiny chip on the base and the bottom has penciled initials 'M.L.' written in cursive. The vase looks well-loved but still sturdy, nothing else broken. It seemed like it might mean a lot to whoever owned it, so I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner.
