I lost my black Fossil watch yesterday around 3pm near the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. It’s a Fossil chronograph with a black stainless steel band and a silver dial. There's a tiny scratch on the bezel near the 2 o'clock mark, and the clasp has a small star engraving I added years ago. This watch was a gift from my grandfather and it feels like part of him; I really need it back. If you found it, email me at [email protected].
I lost my charcoal gray knit scarf yesterday around 3pm in the parking lot behind the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. It's a Nordic Thread scarf, about 60 inches long, with a small brown leather patch near one end and a tiny maple-leaf embroidery on the inside corner. It's a bit pillled from daily wear but otherwise in good condition. It means a lot to me because it was a gift from my sister and it's one of the few keepsakes I have from our time together. If you found it, please message me here—I'd really appreciate getting it back.
I lost my blue plush dragon, Ember, yesterday around 3pm near the Walgreens on 5th Avenue South in Fort Dodge. It's about 12 inches tall, soft blue fur with a white belly, rainbow wings, and a tiny silver star stitched on its chest. There's a small tear at the wing seam and some light pilling from lots of hugs. It was a gift from my grandma, so it means a lot to me—I'd really love to have Ember back if anyone found it.
I lost my blue lanyard with my employee ID badge yesterday around 3pm near the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. The badge is a standard plastic ID with my photo on the left; the photo shows me wearing a gray hoodie, my name Priya Patel, and employee ID #P-4706. The lanyard is royal blue with a small silver clasp and there's a tiny coffee stain on the bottom corner of the card. It was a gift from my employer and I really need it back to get into the office and clock in. If you found it, you can return it to the library front desk or message me here to arrange pickup; I can verify with HR once it's back.
I lost my Sony WH-1000XM4 wireless headphones yesterday around 3pm near the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. They're matte black, over-ear, with a small scuff on the right earcup from a bag drop, but the sound is still great. I always keep the charging cable and the original soft case, which has a tiny coffee stain, and there's a sticker with my initials L.A. on the inside of the case. They mean a lot to me because I use them daily for commutes and Zoom calls, and they were a gift from my sister, so I'd really appreciate getting them back.
I found a silver Seiko watch this afternoon around 2:15pm behind the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. The case is brushed stainless steel with a black leather band, about 42mm, and there’s a tiny nick on the bezel near 3 o’clock. The back has initials 'J.R.' engraved and the face is clean with no cracks. It's in decent condition overall, and it feels like it was recently worn. If you recognize it, drop me a note with any extra identifying details to prove it’s yours — I’d love to get it back to you.
I found a set of keys this afternoon around 2:45pm in the parking lot behind the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. There are about 5 keys on a black metal ring, plus a blue nylon lanyard with a white fox logo and a small red enamel keychain shaped like a guitar pick with the initials JL. One of the keys has a Ford emblem, and there’s a noticeable dent on the edge of the keyring itself. I figured someone would want them back, so here they are. If the owner sees this, feel free to reach out here and we can figure out the best way to return them.
I found a pair of Bluetooth wireless earbuds this afternoon around 3:15 pm outside the Fort Dodge Public Library on 5th Ave South. They’re black with a gray charging case, and there’s a small scratch on the lid. Inside the case there’s a tiny sticker with the initials 'SW' and a partial serial number, and one silicone ear tip has a minor tear. They look gently used but in decent condition. If these belong to you, I’d love to get them back; we can meet near the library parking lot or by the storefront next to the library to return them.
I found a pair of black plastic-frame glasses this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot by the Fort Dodge Public Library on Central Ave. They're Ray-Ban-style, with oval lenses, and there's a tiny scratch on the left lens plus 'J.P.' engraved on the inside of the right arm. Overall the glasses are in good condition, just a bit of everyday wear. If these belong to you, send me a message here and I can leave them at the library desk for pickup.
I found a friendly green and yellow parakeet perched on my fence in Fort Dodge this morning. It seemed a bit scared and chirped when I approached. I’ve been feeding it some seeds, but I'm worried it might belong to someone who is missing it. If anyone recognizes this little guy, please reach out!
