Found xylophones near Falls Park, Sioux Falls

On Friday at 7:20 p.m., near Falls Park in downtown Sioux Falls, I found a large, weathered instrument case tucked behind a bench. Inside, a stack of xylophones and a tangle of mallets spilled out, their colors dulled by sun and rain. It felt like stumbling onto someone's late-night jam session, and a wave of responsibility hit me — I hoped to get them back to their owner. I carried the case toward the park's information kiosk by the entrance and waited a moment, just in case the owner wandered by with a memory they'd left behind.

Lost pendants on Main Street, Sioux Falls

I lost my pendants on Main Street in downtown Sioux Falls around 4:15 p.m. last Saturday. They are a small pair of silver charms on a thin chain, one heart-shaped and the other engraved with my grandmother's initials. They were a daily comfort to me and mean a lot, a keepsake from her that I wore every day. I must have dropped them somewhere along the pedestrian stretch outside SculptureWalk or near the Washington Pavilion area. Please help me find them—I'm hopeful they’re safe.

lost lamps in South Dakota

Hi, I'm Emma Larson. I lost a pair of decorative lamps during a move in South Dakota. I left them on the front steps of my apartment around 6:30 p.m. on Friday, near Main Street, and by the time I got back they were gone from the curb. The lamps have cream ceramic bases with teal glaze and brass trim; one shade is cracked. They were a sentimental gift from my grandmother, and they've lit up my living room for years. I’m hoping someone saw them and might remember where they ended up.

Lost shirts after Sioux Falls fundraiser

Hi, I'm Ava Mitchell. I lost a bundle of shirts after a school fundraiser at Falls Park in Sioux Falls, around 5:45 p.m. last Friday. I left them in a blue tote on the bench beside the carousel by the river walk, and I must have moved on to thank a volunteer when a gust blew through and knocked the tote onto the ground. The shirts are from our charity drive—gray with a red cross logo and a slogan. I'm feeling a mix of worry and hope; those shirts represent the kids who donated, and I’d love to recover them.

Found postcards in Falls Park, Sioux Falls

Today, at around 8:15 a.m., I found a stack of postcards resting on the granite railing near the Falls Park entrance by the Lincoln statue. I tucked them into my backpack for now and kept an eye on them, thinking someone would be missing them soon. The cards show old stamps from the 1960s and cheerful seaside scenes, and I can almost hear the stories behind each one. I’m posting this here because I’d love to see the rightful owner reclaim them through the site.

Found sheet music in Falls Park, Sioux Falls

I found a sheet music stack under a bench outside Falls Park's gazebo in Sioux Falls at about 10:15 this morning. The pages were a little wrinkled, corners bent, and there was a pencil mark on the front page with a student’s name faintly legible. It looked like someone had been practicing for a recital, and then must have forgotten their music as they hurried off. I held onto the sheet music for a while, hoping to reunite it with its owner, and then placed it here for the site to pass along. I know how frustrating it is to lose a piece of your practice, and I’m glad to help reconnect it.
