A cowboy boot, credit cards and, yep, a tackle box: What turned up at Churchill Park's music festival

Anyone missing a single sparkly cowboy boot, their house keys, credit cards or prescription glasses?

These are just some of the random bits and bobs that have turned up after the Churchill Park Music Festival, say organizers, who have been matching lost-and-found items with their owners. 

While the revellers and musicians have packed up and left the St. John's field, festival staffers Scott Tilley and Joella Lomond are still working to reunite people with their lost valuables.

"There's cellphones, debit, credit cards, prescription glasses, sunglasses, vapour cigarettes, medications, even a tackle box and passports," Tilley told CBC News. "There's all kinds of all kinds of items."

He said a woman recently contacted him about the tackle box and recounted how it ended up at the festival.

"She explained that she took her son's knapsack to the concert to sit on," he said.

Also in the stash are the keys to a Honda vehicle, as well as keys for other devices.

"My gosh, we've had keys for everything — mailboxes, cars, houses," said Lomond.

Tilley said other essential items in the bin include photo identification cards as well as debit and credit cards.

"I haven't counted them, but there are a lot here. People have lost a lot of their credit cards, and we've reunited quite a few people with their cards, IDs, purses and wallets so far this weekend."

'It's quite a collection'

He added there were two passports, one of which had been collected as of Monday.

There is also a single sparkling cowboy boot in the lost-and-found bin.

"Too bad they didn't have the pair — the match — to go with it," Lomond said, laughing.

Tilley said the items that have accumulated in the lost and found bin from the recent festival are a bit unusual.

"For two weekends it's quite a collection. Usually, our concerts are a weekend," he said.

Tilley added they've reunited several people with their items already, including owners of about 20 cellphones.
