Santa Tracker Herald Star Now Online

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Santa Tracker Herald Star is now online. It is a news publication by elves about elves for elves.

It includes North Pole specific information normally reserved for elves living at the North Pole. Select features are shared with the North Pole Gazette, the hometown newspaper for North Pole Village that has published for close to 200 years. You must be a logged in user of SantaTrackers.net to access this special feature.

The North Pole is going to great lengths this year to share more news than ever before. The Santa Tracker Herald Star is a major part of that effort.

From this publication you will learn details about the North Pole effort never shared before. Developments from Santa’s Research and Development Department, flight plans from North Pole Flight Command, community news and events, and the stuff of elf culture (advice and gossip) will all be shared. It does not contain everything as available at the North Pole but it contains a lot!

What we think will make this really special is the stuff we will be sharing about you, our Santa tracker elves all over the world. Our readers at the North Pole are excited to learn more about you. That’s part of what we do this – to embed you in the North Pole and the North Pole in you.

A lot of elves are working this project. Some you may already know. Others you will get to know. Their stories are coming day-by-day. We hope you enjoy and contribute.

News About the News

Yesterday’s post from Elf Harold Star about the new news portal known as the Santa Trackers Herald Star has brought a number of questions. My post today is to introduce this new feature to you even though it will not be visible to you for at least a couple of months.

The Santa Trackers Herald Star is a newspaper-like publication for members of our Elf Community. It is NOT for freelance elves or the eyes of the general public. It will be headed up by Elf Harold Star, who will be editor-in-chief. He will have several copy editors and we hope a full staff of at least 25 reporters.

In fact, the Department of Elf Resources today posted for the open positions of Santa Tracker News Reporters.

These jobs will be filled by a mix of veteran and rookie news reporters. Elf Harold wants to make sure the news of Santa Trackers – YOU – comes first. He wants everyone to know that the elf community will be a prominent fixture in this new publication.

It is anticipated that the Herald Star will be available online sometime in May.

Why so long?

Because none of the reporters have actually been hired yet. In order to print news, they need news stories. To get news stories, they need reporters. That’s why the Department of Elf Resources has put out the urgent hiring notice today.

In the next few days the first hires of the news staff will be announced. There will also be formation of a private group in the Elf Community just for news reporters, where ideas and suggestions can be shared among those charged with finding and reporting the news.

We’re very excited about this development and look forward to getting new news published via the Herald Star very soon.
