Santa Tracker 2020: When St. Nick Arrives In Geneva

GENEVA, IL — It’s been a tough year, and while few traditions this holiday season will go on untouched by the coronavirus pandemic, here’s one we can still count on — seeing whether Santa Claus is en route to Geneva with a sleigh full of Christmas gifts.

It’s a tried-and-true way to bring an extra spark of joy to kids this holiday season. It’s also a good incentive to get the kiddos tucked in by convincing them that Rudolph’s red nose is trained on your house and Santa is, in fact, on his way.

One way to track Santa is through the North American Aerospace Defense Command, or NORAD, which keeps count of the number of gifts children who went to bed on time have received.

The U.S. military command charged with protecting the nation’s airspace also tracks Santa’s trajectory.
