Lost sports equipment near MSU Campus, Mankato
Wednesday at 6:15 p.m., I was finishing a jog at Sibley Park in Mankato when I realized my bag of gear was missing from the bench near the tennis courts. Inside were two tennis rackets, shin guards, a couple of athletic gloves, and a bright orange water bottle. The bag is black with a blue zipper and a white script that says 'Jordan' on the side—a small clue that might help. This gear helps me keep up with practices after work, so I’m hoping it’s found and returned. I’ll be grateful to reunite with it.
found ties in Mankato
While walking through Riverfront Park in Mankato this afternoon around 3:15 PM, I spotted a pile of neckties tucked under a bench. They looked well-kept but tangled, as if someone had been in a hurry. I gathered them up and checked for a name tag, but there wasn’t one. I figured they belonged to someone heading to a wedding or interview, so I brought them to the park’s lost-and-found and posted here in case the owner sees this. If these ties are yours, you might find them waiting at the park.
Found sculptures near Riverside Park, Mankato, MN.
I was strolling along Riverfront Park near Sibley Park in downtown Mankato around 3:30 PM Saturday when I spotted a bundle of sculptures resting on a bench. The pieces are a mix of abstract forms and small figurative works, weathered by sun and wind, tucked into a canvas tote with a few rough sketches sticking out. I picked them up and kept them safe, hoping the owner would recognize them here. They looked like something someone spent time shaping, and I wanted to help keep that feeling intact until the owner shows up.
Found microwave near Riverfront Park by Center Street Bridge
I was out for a walk in Mankato this afternoon around 2:15 PM when I spotted a microwave sitting on a bench near Riverfront Park, by the Center Street pedestrian bridge. It’s a white countertop model with a dented door and a faded sticker. I brought it to the Riverfront Community Center to keep it safe until the owner claims it, because it looks like someone may have needed it in a hurry. I know how easy it is to leave something behind, and I hope whoever lost it finds this note and recognizes it.
Lost: Keyboards in Mankato, Minnesota
I was packing up after a quick rehearsal near Riverfront Park in Mankato around 7:15 p.m. last Friday. I must have left behind my two compact keyboards in a gray gig bag with a purple strap; one keyboard has a small sticker of a yellow star on the corner and a dent on the left edge. Those keyboards are the backbone of my practice and small gigs, and I’m stressed imagining them sitting lonely in some corner of the venue. If anyone found them, I’d be grateful to hear anything about their whereabouts.
Coins lost near Sibley Park
I was running along the Minnesota River Trail by Sibley Park in Mankato last Tuesday around 7:42 p.m. and felt my pocket go light as my coins slipped out. The coins aren’t valuable, but they include keepsakes from a trip with my dad and a few old minted pieces that mean a lot. It’s a small loss, but it stings more than loose change. I’m hoping someone who found them around Sibley Park held onto them until now.
lost passport near MSU campus, Mankato
Last Friday around 1:45 PM, I was juggling a coffee order and a quick errand near the Centennial Student Union on the MSU campus in Mankato when I realized my passport was missing from my tote. It was tucked in a brown leather folder with a few travel receipts—the kind of thing you think you’ll always have but forget about in a rush. I’m stressing about upcoming plans and hoping someone handed it in at the security desk or the student union lost-and-found. If you’ve seen it, please hold onto it; I’d be forever grateful.
Found: Chargers near Sibley Park, Mankato
I FOUND a neat pile of chargers after I wrapped up chores and sat near a bench by Sibley Park in Mankato last Tuesday around 6:15 p.m. The cords were tangled with a gray backpack strap and a blue USB-C brick poking out. I checked for a name tag, but there wasn’t one. I left them on the bench and posted here, hoping the owner can recognize them and come claim them through the site. It’s a small moment of relief to help someone reconnect with their everyday gear.
FOUND: Sheet Music near Center Street, Riverfront Park
I found a stack of sheet music under a bench on Center Street by Riverfront Park this morning around 9:15 a.m. The papers are well‑loved—sticky notes in pencil marks, cramped tempo numbers, and a page torn at the edge. There are pieces for piano, some for guitar, and a coffee‑stained receipt tucked between the pages. The folder is worn, a bit damp from last night’s drizzle, the cover showing the name 'L. Chen' in faded ink. It felt personal, like someone was between practice sessions and a recital. I left them on the bench where I found them, hoping the owner or a kind passerby would recognize the music and claim them soon.
Blue reflective dog collar found
Found this blue reflective dog collar this afternoon around 2:45pm in the parking lot behind Target on Madison Ave in Mankato. It's a medium nylon collar, vivid royal blue with a white reflective stripe and a small brass ID tag stamped 'Roxy'. There’s a faint chew mark on the strap and the buckle shows minor scratches, but it’s otherwise in good condition. The tag has a phone number that’s partly worn off. If this belongs to your dog, I’d really like to get it back to you; we can meet near Riverfront Park or at the Target lot.
Red parka jacket with fur hood
I lost my red parka jacket with a faux fur hood yesterday around 3pm near the Target on Madison Ave in Mankato. It's a size large Columbia coat, bright red with black zippers and a small tear on the left sleeve. There’s a blue enamel snowflake pin on the chest and a hidden inner pocket where I keep a photo of my grandmother. It’s really sentimental—gift from her last winter—and I’ve worn it almost every day since. If anyone found it, I’d be so grateful to get it back; I can be reached here.
Teak coffee table with brass knob
I found a teak coffee table this afternoon around 3:15 pm, sitting on the sidewalk outside the Hy-Vee on Madison Ave near Nicollet Plaza. It's about 42 inches long, 18 inches wide, and 17 inches tall, with a warm honey finish and slightly curved edges. There’s a small drawer with a brass knob on one end and a faint coffee-ring stain in the middle top. A couple of tiny nicks on the corner are the only wear I notice. If this is yours, describe the drawer knob and the coffee ring, and we can arrange pickup near the MSU campus.

Nintendo Switch OLED lost near MSU campus yesterday
Hey, I'm pretty sure I dropped my Nintendo Switch OLED yesterday around 3pm near the MSU campus library area on S Front Street in Mankato, by the bike racks outside the library entrance. It's the white base with neon red/blue Joy-Cons, and it came in a gray travel case with a white dragon logo on the zipper. There's a small scratch on the bottom-right of the screen protector, and a blue star sticker on the back. I really need it back—it's my main way to unwind after long classes and it was a gift from my sister last year.
