Lost equipment for various sports near Fort Boreman Park

I was playing a casual pickup game at Fort Boreman Memorial Park around 5 PM when the match ended and I hurried to grab my gear. In the rush, my equipment for various sports didn’t make it back into my car. The bag contains soccer cleats, a basketball, and a blue gym bag with my initials. Losing it has me anxious about the upcoming season, and I keep replaying the moment I realized it was gone. If you found anything matching this description by the riverfront near Fort Boreman Park, please drop a note.

Lost DVDs near Smoot Theatre, Parkersburg.

I lost my DVDs around 2:15 p.m. last Saturday near the Smoot Theatre on Market Street in Parkersburg-Marietta, West Virginia. They were in a black plastic case with a few scratches along the spine, tucked in a tote bag I was using for errands. I retraced the blocks between the theatre and a nearby cafe, asked a couple of clerks, and spoke to a passerby, but nothing turned up. Those films mean a lot to me and our small movie nights, so I’d be grateful to have them back. If you found them, they’re waiting by the Smoot Theatre on Market Street until someone claims them on the site.

Lost: Organizers near Riverview Park, Parkersburg

I was volunteering at a small outdoor meetup in Parkersburg's Riverview Park, part of the Parkersburg-Marietta metro area, around 6:40 PM on Monday when my tote of organizers disappeared from the wooden picnic table near the riverfront. The Ohio River glowed gold as the sun sank behind the bluffs, and my heart sank with it. Those organizers are the setup kit I use to keep cords, labels, and tiny clips tidy for tomorrow’s workshop, and losing them means a scramble I could do without. I retraced my steps along the path by the benches and the gazebo by the boat launch, but there was no sign of them. If you spotted a black tote with a bright orange Organizers label near the river, please keep an eye out in that area.

Blue budgie parakeet with red leg band

I lost my blue budgie parakeet yesterday around 4pm near Riverfront Park on Market Street in Parkersburg, right by the river walk benches. It's a small bird, mostly blue with a white belly and subtle black wing markings. It has a bright red leg band with the number 42 on it. This bird is the family's little chatterbox—my daughter named it Sky—and it means a lot to us, especially since we just moved here last month. If anyone spots him or finds him perched in a yard or tree, please reach out. We'd be forever grateful.

Blue dragon plush with orange wings

I lost my daughter's blue dragon plush yesterday around 3pm near the Parkersburg City Park playground by the carousel, off Riverside Drive. It's about 12 inches tall, soft plush, bright blue with a purple belly and orange felt wings. There's a small frayed seam at the tail and a tiny silver star sticker on the left ear. It was a gift from Grandma and holds a lot of sentimental value for my kiddo—she hugs it every night. If someone found it, we'd be incredibly grateful to get it back; it helps keep her calm at bedtime.

Black Coach tote with teal lining and gold hardware

I lost my black Coach tote yesterday around 3pm near the Blennerhassett Hotel on Market Street in Parkersburg. It's a medium-sized black leather tote with teal satin lining and a gold Coach emblem on the front. It has a small teal tassel keychain and, honestly, there's a faint coffee stain along the bottom corner I can't quite wipe off. Inside were my wallet and a photo of my grandma; it really means a lot to me and I really need it back.
