After a mix-up at an East End party facility, three children went home without presents.
The children’s mothers are appealing to contact those who have children and return the gifts.
Jennifer Quinlan threw her 6-year-old twins and 8-year-old son a birthday party at Sky Zone Trampoline Park on Family Day.
Her eldest son, 26, was supposed to load birthday presents into her blue truck, but Quinlan says they were put in the back of the wrong car.
“He said he put them in the back of the truck with the green sled behind the truck. I said, ‘That’s not my truck,'” Quinlan says.
When she got home, she found that there were no presents in her truck.
Her son had put them in the wrong car.
She says about 15 gifts are missing.
“They are sad. They had a birthday party and opened a lot of presents and now they can’t play with them,” says Quinlan.
She immediately alerted Sky Zone.
The general manager of the indoor trampoline park said CTV News staff searched the parking lot for the truck but it was gone.
“This is the first time something like this has happened,” said manager Kayla Lumley, who has worked at the Tecumsemoll location since it opened about five years ago.
Quinlan also called the Windsor police.
“They asked me to wait a few days, after which I might be able to pick up my plate from mall security,” she said.
Lumley said the business also appeals to pickup truck owners or drivers to return the gift.
“We can drop you off at Skyzone, no questions asked,” she says.
