PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. (AP) — Peterson Air Force base is getting ready for its annual holiday mission — tracking Santa’s storybook sleigh ride around the world.
The North American Aerospace Defense Command has been working for weeks to tackle the one-day mission.
The Gazette reports (http://bit.ly/1PjRGGa ) that dozens of computers and 157 telephone lines will greet hundreds of volunteers Thursday. They’ll be answering calls from an estimated 125,000 children around the globe looking for Santa’s whereabouts.
The call center in a training building will be staffed for 23 hours and Christmas Eve. Volunteers will also share Santa’s location on Facebook and Twitter.
