New recruits, the completion of Halloween activities and the elevation of the Christmas Spirit have all combined in a result of an explosion in elf activity, both on SantaTrackers.net and all the other Official North Pole websites. Over the course of the past 30 days each sector has seen huge increases in new elf recruits:... Read more
There is a report you can send in which very few tracker elves actually use. It's called the Home and Family Report. I'd like all of you to send one in at the first opportunity. I think it is important that you know the we care about you, that Santa sees you as more than... Read more
We held a chat today at SantaUpdate.com with me and Elf Roger Star that was supposed to talk about tracking Santa. I feel we really failed. My intent was to engage some of our new trackers on how to track Santa. We have a lot of new elves. We had some great experienced elves join... Read more
I asked Elf Sandy Claus of the Department of Elf Resources to post the City Captain position. Just about every Sector needs them and all the other Elf Supervisors will want more of them as well. As City Captain you will be the local resource for all things pertaining to tracking Santa. People can ask... Read more
Friends, We have many new elves in Sector 3, some of them joining in just the last week. We see a pattern in new elves. They read a lot of information but they don't ask a bunch of questions. Many just start sending in tracker reports without really knowing what they are doing. That's one... Read more
My friends in the news business who do not live and work at the North Pole often tell me I am lucky. And they are probably right about that. What they are talking about is the fact that sometimes being a newsperson of any kind can be hard. People get mad at us a lot.... Read more
Greetings, Elves! I have been officially notified from North Pole Flight Command that the test flights of Santa's sleigh are heading to Sector 4. Given their last known position near Iceland it is difficult to know it that means they will head north and west towards Greenland or south and west towards South America. I... Read more
Deep at high command at North Pole Flight Command is where a special desk is located. Elves there call it the "hot seat". The elf sitting in that chair has one job and one job only: to talk to Santa when he flies. North Pole Flight Command has a very difficult job. It has to... Read more
Elf activity in Sector 5 has jumped 20 percent in just a week. Elf Crash Murphy asked me to submit a report to the elf supervisors summarizing new elf sign-ups and other data for each sector. I completed that assignment a day or two ago. By far, the most striking number from that report is... Read more
I got a little note from an elf that concerns me. She writes: “Being an elf is boring. There’s nothing going on!” I think Elf Moe has dispatched her by now. She was stirring up some other trouble. Besides, if she cannot see all that is going on then she’s blind and should not be... Read more
In our weekly meeting with North Pole Flight Command we were informed that the test flights of Santa's Sleigh will be in our Sector through the end of the month. This will be an excellent opportunity to see flying sleighs, especially since the weather will be pretty good still over the next few weeks. The... Read more
After a tip off from Elf Moe, I looked at the numbers and sure enough, it appears sign-ups by school teachers are surging. This happens every September. Spurred on by a post at SantaUpdate.com last week for questions from teachers it stands to reason why so many are finding their way here to SantaTrackers.net to... Read more
