Jewelry – Have you lost any?

From time to time, jewelry is found on the Menno Place campus. Despite our attempts to connect with the rightful owner, we have not always been successful. Jewelry is kept in a safe waiting for its owner to claim it. If you have lost a piece of jewelry, please call 604-851-4004 to describe it. Please call us before April 30th. After that date, we will dispose of any jewelry that is unclaimed.
