Special meetings for Santa Trackers have been called for this weekend by North Pole Flight Command. With more than 39 million elves now on the rolls that are tracking-Santa-for-Santa this year Santa feels this weekend is a good time to gather as many trackers together as possible for some instruction and news. “These meetings will […]
It’s a snowy mess at the Reindeer Games this week as organizers rushed events to avoid a premature shut-down of the games. Weather forecasters say a bitter cold front will drop temperatures to a dangerous level within days here at the North Pole, potentially affecting the games. It is too bad as Vixen continues to […]
The Reindeer Games are now in a rush to get completed. While Blitzen and Vixen continue their battle for victory there is a race being watched by the Weather Department at North Pole Flight Command. The problem is not the snow. It is the cold, which is expected to take a dive into the bitter […]
More chats have been added to the North Pole Chat Calendar for this week. It is a busy time at the North Pole but Santa has heard loud and clear from our site visitors that they want to have more contact with the North Pole. Santa believes that with the cancellation of so many events […]
Santa and St. Nicholas are sometimes thought of the same way. Today is St. Nicholas Day and it is a very important day at the North Pole. St. Nicholas lived many, many years ago. He was a Holy man, meaning that he was very religious. His story is one that is familiar and special to […]
North Pole weather can be very unpredictable — except for this year. It has snowed every day here since October 24th – 43 consecutive days! The stuff is piling up here like you wouldn’t believe. This is the North Pole, after all, and it snows a lot here. But we are soon to have a […]
The Reindeer Games began at the North Pole today and already we have a surprise: Vixen is off to a fast start. Vixen, who has been on Santa’s team for decades, does not traditionally rank well at the games, mostly due to her smaller size. But Santa has told us many times that she is […]
There are lots of reindeer babies at the North Pole. And I mean a lot of them. As you will hear from the North Pole Radio News report from today (in the player below), part of the preparation efforts of the annual Reindeer Games is a count of all the reindeer that are here. Santa […]
Tracking Santa by text is going to be a thing this year. We do not know what makes this year so different. But record numbers of people are signing up to receive texts of Santa news once he launches from the North Pole. We did open the sign-ups early this year but the numbers remained […]
The first full day of this week has revealed a few minor problems with Operation Merry Christmas. The weather is hampering efforts to get the Reindeer Games going for one. For 40 straight days we have had snow and that should not be a problem, especially for the reindeer. They love the snow. But the […]
The sleigh bells used on Santa’s sleigh have been something of an issue the past several years. The sleigh bells are a very important part of making the sleigh fly. The reindeer listen to the sleigh bells in order to synchronize their efforts. That means they are a tool to help the reindeer pull as […]
Last night during a chat in the North Pole Chat room Santa was surprised to learn that we had not yet activated Kringle Radio on SantaUpdate.com. I later explained to him that Kringle Radio customarily does not debut on SantaUpdate.com until about a week before launch. Santa feels that given the issues of 2020 that […]
