• Veterans Day breakfast, parade, and ceremony details
• Armed Forces Community Foundation Match Day and giving options
• Fort Riley’s economic footprint and why need is rising
• Operation Santa Claus mission and eligibility at E5 and below
• What each child receives: toys, book, stocking, game
• Role of volunteers: fundraising, decorating, wrapping, guiding parents
• New toy policy and reasons for quality control
• Drop-off times, unofficial photo day, official opening date
• Where to find updates: website first, Facebook limited
• Parade logistics, reviewing stand location, on-site donations

See you tomorrow at match day for the Armed Forces Community Foundation, which you'll be positioned right out front.
