Lost bus tickets in downtown Wausau
Last Friday around 5:45 p.m., I was at the bus stop on Grand Avenue, near Third Street in downtown Wausau. I had folded two bus tickets into a small tan sleeve and must have slipped them out of my pocket while I was juggling a coffee and a receipt. The tickets are for a morning shuttle, and I’m terrified I’ll miss my trip if they don’t surface. They’re important to me because of an upcoming family visit, and I’m anxious about scrambling to replace them. If they’re found, I’d be incredibly grateful to have them back so I can make my plans work.
Lost adapters near Woodson Art Museum, Wausau
I must have left my adapters somewhere around downtown Wausau last Thursday around 8:05 PM after a quick coffee run near the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum. The gray zip pouch held USB-C and USB-A adapters, tangled together like a mini jumble in my bag. I remember setting the bag down on the cafe chair by the courtyard, then walking away with a rush and realizing the adapters were gone only after I reached Rib Mountain nearby. I’m frustrated and anxious because I depend on these for work trips, and I’m hoping someone honest found them and will return them.
Lost photographs from a family trip
I was packing up after a visit to the Marathon County Historical Society around 6:45 PM last Friday and realized a small manila envelope with old photographs was missing from my tote. The photos are a mix of black-and-white prints and a few color shots from the 1960s, including my grandmother's wedding and everyday family moments. The envelope is plain brown, and the label has my mother's neat handwriting in blue ink. The edges are a bit curled and the paper has a faint humidity stain from a summer rain, which makes the memories look almost fragile. These pictures mean the world to me; they carry stories I want to share with my kids one day.
Found radios near Grand Theater, downtown Wausau.
This afternoon around 2:15 PM I found a pair of radios on the sidewalk near the Grand Theater in downtown Wausau. They’re vintage, with wood-grain cabinets; one has a brass tuning dial and the other a teal face plate. I picked them up thinking someone might be missing them, and I’ve kept them safe since. They clearly belong together, and I’d like to help reunite them with their owner. If you’re missing a couple old radios, the website will connect us.
Found: brooches near Leigh Yawkey Woodson Museum
I was leaving the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum at 4:15 pm on a chilly Thursday when a handful of brooches spilled onto the sidewalk by the museum steps. They were loose in a small velvet pouch, some with pearls and others with delicate gold filigree, all glittering in the late-day light. I scooped them up and kept them safe in my tote, thinking how someone must be missing these treasures. I walked toward Grand Avenue and kept an eye out for someone calling, but no one appeared. If these belong to you, a quick description should help us reunite them through the site.
Lost coins from my grandfather.
I lost my coins from my grandfather while I was by the Wisconsin Riverwalk in Wausau at 5:15 PM on Friday. They were tucked in a small brown leather pouch with a cracked snap, containing mostly copper pennies and a few old silver dimes. They mean a lot to me and remind me of weekend visits and stories my grandfather told. I retraced my steps along Grand Avenue from the riverfront to the Wausau Center, but I couldn't find them. If by chance anyone picked them up, I’d be grateful to have them back.
Lost: USB drives with family photos, Wausau
I was at Riverside Park in Wausau around 6:15 PM last Friday when I realized my USB drives were missing from my backpack. Inside the blue neoprene case are two drives with family photos, some school work, and a short video. I think I left them on a bench near the park's gazebo by the river, then walked away for just a few minutes. I hope someone who finds them can see this listing and return them through the site.
Found travel adapters in Wausau
While walking through downtown Wausau this morning around 9:15, I found travel adapters on the sidewalk near the Grand Avenue transit center. The compact set looks used and includes US, EU, and USB adapters tangled in a small blue pouch. I figured someone would be missing these, so I am posting this as a found item in hopes the owner sees it here and claims it through the site.
Lost driver's license in Wausau
Today around 8:30 a.m., I was at The Grand Theatre on Grand Avenue in downtown Wausau and must have left my driver's license on the counter at the little bakery nearby. I only realized it when I reached the bus stop across from the library, and now I’m anxious about ID checks and appointments. The license is a standard Wisconsin card with my photo, and losing it makes everyday tasks feel nerve-wracking. If you found it around The Grand Theatre area, please let me know through the site.
Violin in a black hard case found near Grand Theatre
Found a violin in a black hard-shell case this morning around 9:15am near the Grand Theatre entrance on Grand Avenue, downtown Wausau, just off the Riverwalk parking lot. It's a 4/4 student violin with a warm sunburst finish and a few tiny nicks on the chin rest, and the case sports a light front scuff. Inside the lid there's a sticker from Wausau Music School and a name tag reading 'A. Kim' on the lining, plus the bow has a red ribbon tied around the frog. If this is yours, the sticker and the name tag should help confirm ownership, and I’d be really glad to get it back to you.
Brown Coach wallet with monogram
I lost my brown leather wallet yesterday around 3pm near the Wausau Center on Grand Avenue. It's a Coach bifold with a gold logo on the front, and the inside has a small 'NP' monogram in the inner cash pocket. It's a bit worn, with a coffee stain on the back and a small scratch on the top edge. Inside are my driver's license, a couple of debit cards, and a few old concert tickets I kept for sentimental reasons—my sister gave me the wallet years ago and it means a lot to me. If anyone found it, please message me here; I’d be really grateful to get it back.
Found blue inhaler and medical kit near Riverside Park
I found a blue inhaler and a small medical kit this afternoon around 3:15 pm outside the Walgreens on Grand Avenue, just steps from Riverside Park in Wausau. The inhaler is a standard blue device with a clear cap, and the accompanying kit is a compact black zip pouch with a red cross sticker and a few labeled inner pockets. There’s a small dent on the metal clip of the pouch and a faint sticker with the initials 'L.H.' inside the flap. I’m keeping it safe here for now because I know how important this kind of stuff can be for someone who relies on it, and I’d be happy to help get it back to its owner.
Blue harness with red name tag
I lost my blue Rabbitgoo dog harness, size medium, with bright reflective stripes and a red enamel name tag reading 'Milo'. I last wore it yesterday around 6pm while walking near the library on Main Street in downtown Wausau, close to the bike path by Grand Avenue. The harness is blue with neon orange stitching at the D-ring and has a small tear near the left shoulder strap, plus a tiny scuff on the buckle. Milo is a rescue and this harness means a lot to us; it was a gift from my sister and has sentimental value. If anyone found it, please text me—I’ll come pick it up as soon as possible. Thanks so much.
Found gray dwarf hamster near Grand Theatre, Wausau
Found a tiny gray dwarf hamster this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the Grand Theatre on Grand Avenue in downtown Wausau. It was shivering under a hedge, eyes bright, with soft fur, a white belly, and a tiny crescent scar behind its left ear. It’s about 2 inches long and has a small white patch on its rump—a little feature that might help its owner recognize it. I’m hoping to help this little guy get home soon; pets like him can get scared quick out on the street. If you’re missing a hamster, shoot me a message and we’ll figure out how to get him back to you.
Gold ring with ruby and initials engraving
I lost my gold ring yesterday around 3pm near the Grand Theatre on Grand Ave in downtown Wausau. It's a slim 14k gold band with a tiny red ruby set on the top and a delicate engraving on the inside that reads 'A.P. 01/12'. The ring has sentimental value because it was a gift from my grandmother, and I really need it back. The band is slightly bent at the 3 o'clock edge and there's a faint scratch along the inner side.
