This page is under construction

We publish a detail once we can point to a document for it, and not before. What is settled is below; what is not is listed under it, openly, so you can see what is still moving. If you can close one of those lines, tell us and it goes up the same week.

Not yet confirmed

Six things are missing from this page. None of them is a doubt about the event; each one is a document or a decision we do not have yet.

Start and end time
Not set. The organisers’ deck gives the date and no hours.
Toy drop-off
Not set. There is nowhere to bring a toy yet. When there is, the addresses and the dates go here.
Programme
Being planned. Santa and Mrs. Claus, Three Kings, youth performances, an indoor parade and crafts are all intended. We will list them once the run of show is fixed, not before.
Partner organisations
Being confirmed. The deck names a coalition of schools, businesses and public-safety agencies. We will not print an organisation’s name until that organisation has confirmed it for 2026.
Photographs
No releases on file. We do not publish a photograph in which a child is identifiable without a signed release from a parent or guardian. Every photograph of this event we have seen shows identifiable children, so this page carries none. If you are a parent or an organiser and want to change that, ask us for the release form.
Volunteer roles
Not assigned. Put your name in now and we will come back to you when the day is staffed.

Where the date comes from

The document
2026 Springfield United Toy Drive & Holiday Celebration sponsorship deck, Strong Young Minds, Inc. The date, the venue and the two presenting organisations come from it. Nothing else on this page does.
Where to read it
Not published online; the board holds a copy. Ask us and we will send it to you.
