Navy blue evening gown with beaded neckline
I lost my navy blue evening gown yesterday around 5:15pm. It's a floor-length Eliza J dress, satin belt with a small silver buckle, and a beaded neckline that catches the light. I think I had it near the Fox Theatre on Main Street in Hays, Northwest KS, after the charity gala let out. It's a size US 6, and inside the lining there's a tiny embroidered label with the initials 'A.H.'—plus the belt buckle has a slightly scuffed silver finish. It means a lot to me—this dress was a gift from my aunt—and I'm really hoping someone picked it up and will return it.
Black Ray-Ban round glasses with blue case
I lost my black Ray-Ban round glasses yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart Supercenter on East 41st Street in Hays, KS. They're black acetate frames with a slim gold bridge, about medium width, and the inside of the right temple has initials 'A.K.' engraved. They came with a blue zip pouch and a light-blue hard case; the case has a small dent in the corner. The lenses are in decent shape, but there's a faint smudge on the left lens. I really need them back—these are my day-to-day glasses for work and reading, and they've been with me for years.
Blue Nike size-5 soccer ball with initials
I lost my blue-and-white Nike size-5 soccer ball yesterday around 3pm near the Fort Hays State University soccer fields behind the campus on Hall Street in Hays, Northwest Kansas. It's well-used, with a few scuffs and a small dent on the white panel near the Nike swoosh, and I wrote my initials 'JP' with a black Sharpie on one panel. There’s also a thin orange marker line along the seam that makes it stand out. It has sentimental value because we use it for weekend pickup games — I really need it back to keep playing. If anyone found it, please reach out; I’d be grateful to get it back.
Silver Yamaha flute with engraved initials 'A.J.'
I lost my silver Yamaha flute yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart on 41st Street in Hays, Northwest Kansas. It's a Yamaha YFL-311 student flute, silver finish, about 16.5 inches long, and it comes in a black hard case with a dent on the lower corner. The headjoint cap has tiny initials 'A.J.' engraved, and there’s a small blue sticker of a mountain on the case. It means a lot to me because it was a gift from my late grandmother and I practice daily; I really need it back.
Golden retriever mix with orange collar
I found a dog this morning around 9am wandering behind the Wal-Mart on 41st Street in Hays, Northwest KS. It's a medium-sized golden retriever mix, about 50 pounds, with a tan coat and a darker muzzle. It's wearing an orange nylon collar with a reflective strip and a tag that reads 'Rex'. There's a small white patch on its chest and a tiny notch in the left ear that makes him easy to spot. He looked a little tired but friendly and wagged when I approached; I'm keeping him safe and hoping to reunite him with his people soon.
Well-worn Lonely Planet travel guide found
I found a well-worn Lonely Planet Western US travel guide this afternoon around 2:15pm, here in Northwest Kansas, tucked under a bench in the parking lot behind the Hays Public Library on 9th Street. It's a paperback with an orange cover, about 1.5 inches thick, and the spine is creased from heavy use. There's a blue bookmark with the initials 'S.J.' peeking out, and a small map folded in the back cover that shows the California coast. It looks like it's been in someone’s bag for a while, with a coffee stain on the top edge. If you’re the owner, I’d be happy to return it in person at the library—hope to reunite it with its owner soon!
Midnight-blue Yamaha 5-piece drum set
Lost my midnight-blue Yamaha Stage Custom birch 5-piece drum set yesterday around 3pm.

The kit includes a 22" kick, 12" and 13" rack toms, a 16" floor tom, and a 14" snare, with a few scratches on the wrap and a faded phoenix decal on the bass drum hoop; there’s also a dent in the chrome snare stand and a worn red logo sticker on the rack toms. It was my late dad's kit and really means a lot to me; if you’ve seen it, text me a quick photo so I can confirm.
Silver charm bracelet with emerald heart charm
I lost my silver charm bracelet yesterday around 3pm near Main Street by the Prairie Museum of Art and History in Colby, NW Kansas. It's a 7-inch silver-tone chain with an emerald heart charm and a tiny star charm, and the clasp is stamped with a small 'A'. It has sentimental value—my grandmother gave it to me, and I really need it back. I think I last had it while I popped into a cafe on Main Street and then walked toward City Park. If you found it, email [email protected] — I’d be grateful to be reunited.
Black Anker USB-C hub with orange cable
I lost my black Anker PowerExpand USB-C hub yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart parking lot behind the store on 41st Street in Hays, KS.

There’s a white sticker on the bottom with the initials 'JP'. It was a gift from my sister and I really need it back to finish a project; it has sentimental value and I’d be crushed to lose it for good.

I lost my 14k white gold ring with a small sapphire yesterday around 3pm near the Sternberg Museum parking lot on the Fort Hays State University campus in Hays, Northwest Kansas. It’s a slim bezel-set sapphire about 4mm across, and there’s a tiny nick on the outside near the 7 o'clock position. Inside the band there’s a delicate engraving 'M.P.' that my grandmother helped me pick out. It was a gift from her, and it means a lot to me—this ring carries real sentimental value and I really need to get it back.

I found a compact Akai MPK Mini MKII USB MIDI keyboard this afternoon around 3:15pm in the parking lot behind The Music Exchange on 2nd Ave, downtown Hays, NW KS. It’s black with 25 keys and 8 green pads along the top—perfect pocket-size for travel and practice.

I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner; if you recognize these details, you probably know where it belongs.
Black leather belt with brass buckle – sentimental gift
I lost my black leather belt yesterday around 3pm near the downtown Hays courthouse on 2nd Street in Northwest Kansas. It's about 1.5 inches wide, made of genuine leather with a brass buckle that has my initials 'JR' engraved on the back and a tiny scratch along the left edge.

Navy fleece hoodie with fox patch
I lost my navy fleece hoodie yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart on 27th Street in Hays, Northwest KS. It's a men's size large, The North Face fleece with a small fox embroidery on the left chest and a green zipper pull that I added for quick ID. The fabric is soft but a little pilled from daily wear, with a tiny snag at the cuff and a faint coffee stain along the hem from a camping trip. This hoodie means a lot to me—it's a gift from my sister and feels like a lucky piece I wore during tough days, so I really need it back. If you found it or have any info, please email [email protected] or reply here.
Space Gray iPad Pro 11-inch found near Hays
I found a Space Gray iPad Pro 11-inch this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the Market Street Market on 12th Street in Hays, Northwest Kansas. It's snug in a black neoprene sleeve with a blue sticker on the back that has the initials 'J.D.' and there's an Apple Pencil attached on the side. The screen saver shows a family photo from a recent trip, and the device seems well cared for overall, with only a few tiny scratches on the corner. I’m sure it matters to someone, so I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner. If this is yours, describe a detail from the device—like the wallpaper or the sticker—for verification, and I’ll hand it back.
DeWalt 20V cordless drill—yellow and black
Yesterday around 3pm, I realized my DeWalt 20V Max cordless drill was missing after I was finishing up some shelves near the Ace Hardware on 27th Street in Hays. It's the yellow-and-black model with a black rubber grip, a small dent on the chuck, and a blue zip tie I used as a temporary marker on the belt clip. Inside the case there’s a 1/16-inch bit and a square initials sticker 'NP' on the handle. This drill was a gift from my grandfather, and I really need it back; I’ve got projects lined up and it’s my go-to tool.
