Santa Makes a Stunning Announcement

Santa made a stunning announcement a short time ago at a press conference just held at the North Pole. Please listen to this newly posted episode of the Santa Trackers Podcast which features the North Pole Radio News report as it aired live from the event.

Santa wants to have an unprecedented number of tracker elves by the time he takes off for Christmas 2021. The number that Santa personally announced was not foreseen by anyone and it goes far to explain all the early actions taken by Flight Command this year.

Elves, we have a lot of work ahead of us!

Special Elf Chat Coming Up Sunday

For the first time ever a special elf chat is scheduled here on SantaTrackers.net as part of the Christmas-in-July celebrations at the North Pole. Sunday, July 11th at 2pm EST in Elf Chat here on SantaTrackers.net a chat will be hosted by Elf Frank Myrrh who will chat with Elf Agent X of North Pole Security.

We have scheduled this event at SantaTrackers.net because the information this discussion will provide is really more for elves than for standard believers.

North Pole Security is tasked with keeping Santa and the North Pole safe. As the North Pole Radio News team has reported over the years it is sometimes a sad reality that Santa faces a variety of threats on Christmas Eve that could slow him down or stop his flight efforts altogether. North Pole Security deals with these situations.

This conversation will be useful to tracker elves. You all need to be aware that these things happen and that you can do your part by reporting on suspicious activity you might hear about in your area.

We invite you to come and be a part of this discussion.

Invite Friends to the Become-an-Elf Workshop

The Become-an-Elf Workshop is coming up soon and it is a great opportunity to invite friends who you hope to recruit to become elves.

This special event will give very basic information about what we do as Santa Trackers for Santa. It is an introductory course for someone who maybe doesn’t know Santa has this program or perhaps just needs a little help understanding how it all works.

We know how hard it can be to talk to folks about becoming elves. We see the questions and concerns you have about bringing it up to people. Maybe this little workshop can help you. That way you don’t have to invite them to become a tracker elf for Santa – you can invite them to this event so they can just learn about how to become an elf.

We would also invite you to invite your parents, if you’re an elf on the younger side. A lot of parents are not aware of our little website here and this workshop is a good way to introduce them to it. We want parents to know what we do here and to understand what you’re up to as an elf. This workshop is a good way for us to pick up a few new elves who might be parents, too. We love that when that happens.

Just remember – this chat will be held at the chat room at the Merry Forums of MyMerryChristmas.com, a general Christmas community. We are holding the event there because we have been invited to their Christmas-in-July celebrations. We feel it is an excellent venue to bring a lot of people to advance knowledge of becoming an elf.

So invite your friends. It will be held Saturday, July 17th at 10am EST at MyMerryChristmas.com

The People Tracking Department

Elf Frank Myrrh tracked down this elf in something called the People Tracking Department at the North Pole. He interviewed him for the latest episode of the Santa Tracker Podcast.

Yeah, I had never heard of it either.

The People Tracking Department is just a small part of the larger Tracking Department at the North Pole. They’re job, according to this dude Frank interviews, is to keep lists of people.

Lots of people. Lots of lists.

Why? Why would Santa allow this to happen?

Well, it’s kind of to help Santa stay organized.

Take for example all the wish lists that Santa receives. All that information goes into a computer so Santa can keep it straight. Imagine just how many wish lists came in for Santa TODAY. Now imagine how many of those people sending in lists today are going to change them between now and Christmas? And how many times will they change it?

That’s kind of what this department does. It keeps track of the “people stuff” related to Santa.

If you think about it the People Tracking Department kind of has an impossible, thankless, endless job!

This is a pretty cool conversation. I’m really liking these new podcasts. They give us a bit more information than we get from the more general North Pole Podcast over at SantaUpdate.com.

It’s good to be a tracker elf!

A Chat with Elf Crusader

Elf Frank Myrrh has been a podcasting machine this weekend. I have knowledge not only of the episodes he has done for us here at SantaTrackers.net but also that he has some work for the North Pole Podcast coming out soon too.

In this episode he talks with “famous” Elf Crusader. Click here to listen to it.

Elf Crusader is famous at the North Pole and in this episode you will see why. He’s got quite the story.

Frank’s Zoom chat with Elf Crusader is fun to listen to because the questions he asks Elf Crusader is something that just didn’t intimidate this elf. He relished the questions and answered them honestly. That is what makes this a good listen.

Frank is looking for more elves to interview. He even asked me, but I’m too shy to go on a podcast. Besides, I think he needs to talk to more elves out there in the field – from all over the world.

I think it was fun to get into Elf Crusader’s world a little bit and to hear what he thought of tracking Santa and being an elf. That’s pretty cool.

The Santa Tracker Tracking Department

Elf Frank Myrrh just posted a new podcast episode about the Santa Tracker Tracking Department. This is a very important episode to listen to.

He’s not talking about Santa tracker elves. He’s talking about other Santa trackers out there – places like NORAD and Google Santa Tracker.

Yeah, there’s a whole department that follows other Santa trackers out there.

Why?

Because they get the story of Santa wrong, they mess up the flight details and they give out bad information.

Frank talks this over with Elf Curly Bennion whose job it is to track the trackers. Click here to listen to it.

This is an important thing. A lot of people come here because they want to become elves but then they insist on using these bogus trackers. That doesn’t make them elves. That makes them….something else. This episode goes far to explain that you should only get your tracking data from the North Pole.

Period.

By the way, Elf Frank Myrrh has been one busy podcaster this weekend. I know he’s got several episodes in the pipeline and don’t be surprised if he springs another one on you really soon.

North Pole Photo Exhibit Planned

We are pleased to announced the opening of a special photo exhibit titled Scenes from the North Pole. This special collection of photographs has been approved by Santa Claus for public exhibition. It is one of the only times in history where pictures from the real North Pole have ever been shown. The event is planned 5 months before Christmas Eve on July 24th at 2pm EST.

This exhibit will be shared in Elf Chat at SantaTrackers.net. It is an exhibit reserved exclusively for tracker elves working in the service of Santa and is not available to the general public.

The collection will be shared by Elf Ed Zachary, world famous Santa Defender and North Pole journalist, whose work has been featured at The North Pole Gazette, Elf Life, North Pole Daily, SantaUpdate.com, MyMerryChristmas.com and SantaTrackers.net. Mr. Zachary will explain each image as it is shared.

North Pole Photo Exhibit

This image was recently taken at the North Pole showcasing the Northern Lights some distance from North Pole Village. This is the first time such an image from the North Pole as been shared.

The collection includes images of reindeer, North Pole landscapes, North Pole buildings and scenes of interest in and around the North Pole. Mr. Zachary is an accomplished photographer and these images are from his personal collection. Each image has been vetted through North Pole Security and the entire exhibit has been personally review by Santa.

We remind you that this exhibit will only be shared via the Elf Chat room at SantaTrackers.net. To participate you must be a registered Santa Tracker Elf, having taken the Elf Oath. These images are NOT to be shared outside the confines of this website and are only for the educational and informational needs of Santa’s elves. We encourage elves who work remotely for Santa to participate in this special event.

Introducing the Santa Tracker Podcast

Friends,

A big day just got bigger. Mark Leon Day 2021 as the day that the Santa Trackers Podcast officially launched. Just posted by Elf Frank Myrrh is the first episode which features both Elf Lil Cream and Elf Crash Murphy.

I can tell you that behind the scenes a lot of work has gone into this project. It is only going to get bigger over time, too.

The intent of this podcast is to showcase our Santa Tracker elves. The introductory episode does a nice job giving you just a taste of that with Elf Lil Cream’s featurette. She is, as you know, the host of A Creamy Christmas Podcast. But this episode explains a little bit about the inspiration for the whole Santa Tracker elf program that Santa launched five years ago.

We hope this adds a little joy to your Leon Day and that you plan to tune in going forward as we share more and more about Santa Tracker elves.

Leon Day Offers a Chat for Elves

Hi elves!

Elf Ivy Holley here. I just wanted to remind you guys that today is Leon Day. It is the halfway mark to Christmas and it is something of a big deal at the North Pole. I’m sure you’ve already read all about it over at SantaUpdate.com.

Well there’s something else going on today — it’s a chat with Elf Crash Murphy! You know Crash. Or at least I hope you know Crash. He’s a big guy in the Santa Tracker movement and you need to get to know him. For Leon Day Crash agreed to come do a chat and I think you should let all your friends and family know about it. Especially those who are NOT elves yet. It is a good way to slowly introduce them to the idea of becoming an elf.

Elf Crash is a straight talker. He’s kinda funny but always honest about Santa, tracking Santa and the North Pole. He’s got a cool story. And his chats are always entertaining. So you should come and invite as many others as you can.

Now, we know it’s Friday night. We know it is summer time for some of you, winter for others. And that means different stuff. But it will be held over in the North Pole Chat Room at SantaUpdate.com at 7:30pm EST. This chat was added to the calendar only a week or so ago.

If you do one thing to celebrate Leon Day come chat with Elf Crash!

Tracking Santa on the Radio

It has come to the attention of the Public Relations Department at the North Pole that some elves are not familiar with North Pole Radio News and the work they do in tracking Santa around the world.

Well, watch this first:

We present this information in advance of sharing the first episode of the Santa Trackers Podcast – which is coming out at any moment.

You will also soon hear of a Christmas-in-July opportunity to hear the North Pole radio news broadcast from last Christmas – if you weren’t around the hear it on Christmas Eve. It’s very exciting.

We will be glad to answer any questions you might have.
