Post-festival notes

If you lost anything at the festival, there is a box of lost-and-found. Anyone who’s already contacted us via the site has been forwarded to the organizers in charge of that box, and hopefully we’ll restore your items to you. In cases where the item’s not in that box, if you have a general idea of where you might’ve lost the item (ie around the port-a-potties), your information has been forwarded to whomever was in charge of that area. Again, hopefully we’ll get everyone’s lost items back to them safely.

ETA: it might also help to contact Parks & Rec, because they also have a lost-and-found separate from the festival organizers. (It really depends on the person who found your item, and where they might’ve turned it in — whether to the festival, or to one of the park police.) While we’re forwarding any reports of items not in our lost-and-found box to Parks & Rec as well, it might be quicker if you also contact them directly.

Also, still working on the slideshow of this year’s volunteers and attendees, and hope to have that up as soon as possible. If you have any videos or photographs you took that you’d like displayed on the website, we’d love to have them! Just comment on this post and we’ll get in touch with you. Thanks!
