Lost holiday decorations near Festival Park, Joplin

I lost a tote of holiday decorations on Tuesday, December 16, around 7:45 PM, at Festival Park while helping set up for a small family gathering. A gust of wind toppled the tote, and I grabbed it and drove home to my apartment on 5th Street, but by the time I pulled into the driveway, the tote was gone. Inside were a string of warm-white LED lights, a handful of glass ornaments, and a handmade pinecone centerpiece with a red velvet ribbon. I keep thinking about the tree at home and how those pieces tied our memories to this season. If you saw a lone tote near the park's gazebo or in Festival Park's parking area, please let me know.

Pink unicorn plush with rainbow mane, lost.

I lost my daughter's pink unicorn plush yesterday around 3pm near the Joplin Public Library on Main Street. It's about 12 inches tall, made of soft pink fleece, with a sparkly silver horn and a rainbow mane. There's a tiny yellow star stitched on its right hoof and a light blue satin ribbon around its neck. My kiddo treats it like a little friend; it was a gift from grandma, so it means a lot. If you found it, you can email me at [email protected] and we can arrange a pickup.

Bearded dragon missing, orange-tan with blue dot near eye

I lost my orange-tan bearded dragon yesterday around 4pm near the QuikTrip on 7th Street in Joplin. He’s about 12 inches from nose to tail, with dark orange banding along his back and a pale belly. A small blue dot sits near his left eye, and there’s a tiny sun-shaped scar at the base of his tail. He’s usually calm, eats greens and crickets, and this little guy is a gift for my daughter, so it really means a lot to get him back. If you’ve seen him or if you spot a reptile hanging around a warm corner, please reach out—I’m really hoping to bring him home.

Gray canvas tote bag with leopard scarf

I found a gray canvas tote bag this morning around 9:15am in the parking lot behind the Joplin Public Library on Main Street. It’s a medium-sized bag, a bit worn, with a frayed denim corner and a red zipper pull that stands out. Inside I spotted a leopard-print scarf peeking out, a small silver locket, and a notebook with someone’s name, 'Ava Nguyen', on the cover. The bag seems well-used but intact, and it still smells faintly like coffee. If you’re missing a bag matching this description, please reach out—I’d love to reunite it with its owner.

Framed teal-and-gold abstract painting

I found this framed teal-and-gold abstract painting this afternoon around 3:15pm outside Northpark Mall on Main Street in Joplin. It's a 16x20 inch canvas in a matte black frame with a few minor nicks on the edge. The swirls are teal and cobalt blue with hints of copper that catch the light, and there's a small white signature 'L. Rivera' in the bottom right corner. On the back, there's a dusty gallery label and a tiny coffee ring mark on the frame. If someone is missing this piece, send me a note here and we can arrange a quick pickup at the Northpark entrance.

Black Adidas football cleats, neon green accents

I lost my black Adidas football cleats with neon green accents yesterday around 3pm outside the Joplin Public Library on Main Street. They’re size 9, men's, with a small white scuff on the left toe and a frayed blue shoelace. They’re in decent condition, but they mean a lot to me because they were a gift from my high school coach and kept me going through season after season. I really need them back for an upcoming league game. If you found them, please DM me and I’ll pick them up asap.
