LOST: Organizers in Brainerd

I was volunteering at the downtown Farmers Market near the Brainerd Public Library yesterday around 3:45 pm when I realized my organizers were missing from my tote. They’re a blue three-ring binder with calendars, checklists, and a few handwritten notes about a fundraiser. Without them I feel scattered, juggling deadlines and family plans this month. I retraced my steps along 2nd Street and around the library, hoping someone found them and kept them safe in the meantime.

lost sheet music near Brainerd Public Library

I lost my sheet music in a gray folder after rehearsal on Wednesday at 4:20 PM, and I must have dropped it as I hurried toward the Brainerd Public Library on Laurel Street. The folder holds pieces from our community choir, plus notes my grandfather wrote in the margins; it's hard to replace. I walked down Laurel Street toward 3rd Avenue but didn't see it anywhere. The pages are marked with coffee stains and a few torn corners, a small treasure of memory and practice. If someone found it, I’d be grateful to hear.

Gold-tone hoop earrings with turquoise beads

Found a pair of earrings this afternoon around 3:45 pm near the Paul Bunyan statue in downtown Brainerd, by the 8th Street roundabout. They’re gold-tone hoops, about 1 inch across, with a small turquoise teardrop bead dangling from each hoop. One earring has a tiny heart engraving on the back, and the other shows a faint dent near the clasp from being rubbed along the pavement. They’re in decent condition overall, just a bit dusty from lying on the ground, and I know someone is probably missing them. If these belong to you, I’d love to help get them back to you.

Blue lanyard ID card found near library

I found a blue ID card this afternoon around 3:45pm behind the Brainerd Public Library on Willow Street, near the bike racks by the back entrance. The card lives in a clear plastic sleeve, attached to a blue lanyard with white stripes. The name on the card appears to be 'Mia Patel' with a small photo of a smiling woman. There's a tiny panda sticker on the sleeve that should help identify it. If this belongs to you, I’d be happy to get it back to you; I know how important an ID can be.

Navy Nike hoodie, size L, mountain patch

I lost my navy Nike hoodie yesterday around 3pm near the Brainerd Public Library on Willow Street. It's a size large, navy blue hoodie, made of a soft cotton-poly blend with white drawstrings. The chest has a small embroidered mountain logo, and there's a faint bleach mark on the right cuff from a coffee spill last winter. This hoodie has been my go-to during Brainerd's chilly mornings and it feels sentimental - it's a gift from my sister. If anyone found it, please reach out; I'd be incredibly grateful to get it back.

Blue employee ID card with photo and Volunteer sticker

I lost my blue employee ID card yesterday around 3pm near the Brainerd Public Library on Main Street. It's a rectangular plastic ID about the size of a credit card, with my photo on the left and a tiny holographic strip across the top. The back has a bright yellow 'Volunteer' sticker I put on last month, and there's a small dent in the top-right corner. This badge is essential for work access to the community center and also carries sentimental value because it's tied to memories from last year; I'd really appreciate getting it back.

I lost my gold-tone necklace with a small freshwater pearl charm yesterday around 3pm near the Brainerd Public Library on Willow Street.

Black 49-key MIDI keyboard found near Brainerd Library

I found a black M-Audio Keystation 49 MK3 USB MIDI keyboard controller this afternoon around 4:15pm. It was sitting in the parking lot behind Brainerd Market on 2nd Ave S, not far from the library entrance. It’s in decent shape with a small dent on the right edge and a bright blue sticker with the initials 'JL' on the back. It looks like someone was in the middle of a practice session, maybe after a gig—hope to get it back to its owner soon. If this is yours, send me a message here with the sticker initials and any other identifying detail that only you would know.

Navy hoodie with white Nike swoosh

I lost my navy Nike hoodie yesterday around 3pm near the Brainerd Public Library on Laurel Street. It's a size M, fleece-lined navy blue hoodie with a white Nike swoosh on the chest, a bit pilled from wear, and the left pocket has a tiny fray along the seam. There's a small coffee stain on the front pocket from a cafe stop earlier that day. It has sentimental value—it was a gift from my sister and it always brings back good memories. If anyone finds it, I’d really appreciate getting it back; I can describe the inside label and the frayed hem to verify.

Navy blue North Face backpack found near library

I found a navy blue North Face backpack this afternoon around 4:15pm in the parking lot behind the Brainerd Public Library on Willow Street. It’s a medium-sized pack, with bright orange zipper pulls and a frayed bottom corner. There’s a small panda sticker on the inside pocket—easy to spot if you look inside. The bag is a bit worn but clean overall, and I figured someone might be missing it after a quick walk through the library plaza. If you’re the owner, please reach out so we can get it back to you.

Yellow-green budgie with red leg band

I lost my yellow-green budgie yesterday around 4:15pm. He's from PetSmart, about 6 inches long, with a bright green body and a yellow head; there’s a bit of feather wear on the tail from last week’s wind. We named him Sunny, and he’s been a real bright spot since we got him last summer. Last seen near the Brainerd Public Library on 2nd Street by the walking bridge over the Mississippi. He wears a red leg band and has a tiny blue patch on his left wing, and he responds to a whistle when I call his name. This bird is special to us—please reach out if you spot him; we’re really hoping to bring him home.

Found silver analog watch near Brainerd Library

I found a silver-toned analog watch this afternoon around 4:15pm in the parking lot behind the Brainerd Public Library on Laurel Street. The case is stainless steel with a black dial and white hour markers, and it wears a dark brown leather strap that’s a little worn from daily use. On the back there’s an engraving that reads 'AR', and the crown feels a bit stubborn but it still winds smoothly. If this sounds like yours, I’d love to help get it back to you—I know how meaningful a watch can be.
