Lost Breeds near Capitol Market

I lost my Breeds last Saturday at about 8:00 PM outside Capitol Market in Charleston, in the old part of town. The folder labeled 'Breeds' with notes on dog breeds and training was in my tote; it's not fancy, but it holds weeks of work. I remember chatting with a vendor about a brindle photo and turning back to grab my coat, only to find the bag lighter with the folder gone. The brick street lamplight felt heavy that night, and I worried about someone misplacing it as much as I did. If you found it, please help me get it back to its owner.

Lost pins near High Street, Morgantown

Hi, I am Ava Bennett. I misplaced a few delicate pins last Tuesday around 6:30 p.m. downtown Morgantown, near High Street by the Morgantown Civic Center. They are vintage family pins, one silver with a small green enamel leaf and another tiny pin with a compass design, pinned to my cardigan that day. I retraced the sidewalk along High Street toward the Monongahela Riverfront, but they are nowhere to be found. They are special to me, and I hope someone picked them up and held onto them until I could get back to collect them.

Lost CDs in old West Virginia

Last Saturday around 3:30 PM, I think I left my CDs somewhere near Capitol Market in Charleston, West Virginia. They aren’t just a stack of tunes to me; those discs carry memories from road trips with friends and the soundtracks of long drives. They were in a silver case with a dent in the corner, tucked beside a bench by the coffee cart. I feel a bit panicked about losing them, and I’d be grateful for any sighting near the market stalls or the plaza if someone picked them up.

Lost Hand Tools in West Virginia

Hey there, I was tackling a weekend project when the weather turned. Around 6:48 p.m. last Friday, I realized my hand tools were missing from the pegboard above my workbench in the shed behind my old log cabin near Hawks Nest State Park. The set includes a hammer, pliers, a rusty adjustable wrench, and a dented blue toolbox—tools I’ve used for years and hate to lose. I’m scrambling to finish a job and could really use them back where they belong, especially before another storm rolls in.

Lost sheet music near the old courthouse, West Virginia

I was practicing scales on Tuesday at 2:15 pm, tucked away on a bench outside the old courthouse on Main Street in West Virginia (old). I must have left the folder there after a quick phone call, and now those pages are gone. The binder held a handful of handwritten pieces from college, creased and stained from coffee, and I’m anxious about someone else finding them. If anyone spots them on that block, I’d be so grateful to have them back.

Lost sports equipment bag near WVU Rec Center

On Tuesday around 5:50 p.m., I realized my equipment bag was missing from the rack outside the West Virginia University Student Recreation Center by the basketball courts in Morgantown. The bag is a gray Nike duffel with a blue strap, stuffed with gear for soccer, basketball, and tennis—rugged cleats, a racket with a taped grip, and a well-worn pair of sneakers. The loss hits hard as practices and pickup games depend on that gear. I’m hoping whoever found it left it somewhere safe or turned it into the rec center lost-and-found so it can find its way back to me.
