Lost Action Figures in Reading, PA

On Sunday at 3:20 p.m., I realized my action figures were gone from my backpack after we sat on a bench near the Pagoda in City Park, Reading. I had been showing them to my nephew, lining them up along the railing while the leaves fell around us. The missing ones are a blue-hooded hero, a red-winged figure, and a small green sidekick, all of them a little scuffed but beloved. I carried them from the Reading Public Library to the park that afternoon, and the sight of an empty pocket made my heart sink. I’m hoping someone nearby picked them up and kept them safe until I can bring them back home.

Lost hoops in Reading, PA

Tonight around 7:15 p.m., after leaving the GoggleWorks Center for the Arts on 5th Street, I realized my hoops were missing from my bag. I’d just stopped by a food vendor near City Park, then walked the Penn Avenue stretch toward 5th Street Market, and I must have dropped them somewhere along the way. They’re important to me not just for style, but because they remind me of home and a concert I attended last month. If they turn up, I’d be grateful to the person who picked them up and held onto them.

Lost desk organizers near GoggleWorks

I was sorting through a pile of papers at 2:45 p.m. yesterday outside the GoggleWorks Center for the Arts in Reading, Pennsylvania, when I realized my desk organizers were missing. They’re a small blue three-drawer set with a clear lid, and they held labels and a spare USB drive. I must have set them down while I chatted with a friend near the building’s entrance, then wandered off to grab coffee. My heart sank when I noticed they weren’t where I left them, and I’ve checked the nearby benches and the sculpture garden to no avail.

Found two parrots in Reading, PA

I was heading back from a late shift near the GoggleWorks Center for the Arts at 6:15 PM last Friday when I spotted two parrots wandering along the sidewalk. One is a bright emerald green with a yellow chest, the other has a blue tail and a hint of orange near the beak. They seemed calm but a bit lost, hopping between bike racks and storefront signs while calling softly. I hope to reunite them with their owner, and you can reach me through the site if these are yours.

Lost: Holiday decorations in Reading, PA

Today in Reading, I lost my holiday decorations in a rush outside the Reading Public Library on Penn Avenue around 9:40 a.m. I had helped with a small charity setup, and when I turned back, the tote with a red-and-green garland, a string of warm fairy lights, and a velvet ribbon was gone. The tote is black with a tiny snowflake sticker. If this belongs to you, please claim it through the site.

Found drapes near Reading Public Library

Today around 2:15 p.m., I found a bundle of drapes behind a stack of crates in an alley off Court Street near the Reading Public Library. They’re heavy, a deep burgundy with a subtle damask pattern, and the lining shows a pale gold. I checked for a note, but nothing attached gave me a name, so I figured they must belong to someone who lost them during a move. I’m glad to help, and I left them safe for the owner to claim here.
