Christmas in July gets a kick off this weekend with the first chats scheduled during our month-long celebration.

Here at SantaUpdate.com, coming this weekend, July 1st and July 2nd, are two chats: on Saturday at 5pm EST Elf Ernest will be in chat to discuss Christmas in July and to answer any questions you might have. On Sunday, Elf Max, webmaster at SantaTrackers.net, will be in North Pole chat to talk about tracking Santa for Santa and how the website for Santa trackers works.

And speaking of Santa Trackers, we have a whole slate of chats with key North Pole elves who are scheduled so far to chat at SantaTrackers.net:

• Elf Trixie, Chief of Staff to Mrs. Claus, will be in chat at SantaTrackers.net to share the latest direction from Santa for Santa Trackers. Elf Crash Murphy will be there to provide support. This is at 6pm EST in the chatroom at SantaTrackers.net.

• Elf Victor, head of Reindeer Operations at the North Pole, will be in SantaTrackers chat at 11am EST. He will answer any questions you might have about Santa’s reindeer.

• Elf Moe, Elf Enforcement at SantaTrackers.net, will be in chat at SantaTrackers.net on Tuesday, July 4th at 10am EST to discuss using the SantaTrackers.net website and answer any questions you might have.

• Elf Agent X, head elf of North Pole Security, will host chat at SantaTrackers.net on Tuesday, July 4th at 11am EST. He will update us on the search for Santa and answer any other questions you might have.

These are just the first few chats so far set up for Christmas in July. Each chat will be archived for later viewing for those who cannot attend at the scheduled times.

We hope you can join us!
