Lose something? Find something? If you've misplaced or lost something in a park, recreation center or program, BPRD now features some options to help you reconnect with your item.

1️⃣ First and foremost, return to the place you last had possession of it. It may still be there! Clothing, water bottles and sports balls are often placed near where they were found and/or held at the front desk of a facility until closing time on the day the item is found.

2️⃣ Second, connect with BPRD through our new online Lost and Found system. The system helps manage valuable lost and found items, and aims to ease the process of returning items when they are separated from patrons and park users, when possible. Typical items that may be entered into the online system include: electronics (phones, tablets, headphones, smart-watches), medication/medical related (prescription drugs, hearing aids, canes/walkers), jewelry, wallets/purses, keys, etc.

Learn more or report an item on the BPRD Lost & Found webpage at: www.bendparksandrec.org/about/lost-and-found/
