One of a child’s most prized possessions is their bike, so when Channy Schmidt accidentally left her son Wyatt’s bike at Moranbah’s Bernborough Park after a party, she was relieved to discover someone had found the bike and had posted the discovery to the Moranbah Community Notice Board Facebook group.
“(I) didn’t realise until a friend PM’d me about an ad on (Moranbah Community Notice Board) about it,” Ms Schmidt posted.
“I’ve raced down to the park now but can’t find it.
“Please help us get it back, my little boy absolutely loves this bike.”
The bike was found by Emma Harrison and her daughters, who came across it at the park and shared photos of it throughout social media hoping to reunite it with its owner.
“A big THANK YOU to Emma Harrison and her daughters for thinking to take my son’s balance bike home with you last night,” Ms Schmidt later commented after connecting with Ms Harrison.
“If you hadn’t, we may not have got it back.
“You’re amazing and we can’t thank you enough.
“Be proud, Mumma, you’re raising some amazing children there.
“Wyatt is so happy to have his bike back.
“And thank you for taking the effort to fix his BMX plate back up.”
Community spirit, paired with the power of social media, prevails.
