Nice news of the day – December 24, 2019

Did you know that North Dakota ranks #41 for December births?  North Dakota babies know better than to be born in the cold (I’m a January birthday…brr!).

And did you know today’s news is all about North Dakota Santas.  Read on.


I know “the reason for the season” is an important topic to the Christian community in North Dakota (and probably everywhere); but I’ve posted a bunch of stories of people giving Christmas gifts to children and families because it seems the social impacts of Santa and gift-giving are also important to our area kids.  It’s tough to see your friends get all sorts of cool presents from Santa when you get nothing (or not much), so I love groups like the Santa Claus Girls who are acting as local Santas to give families some boxed happiness.

A little battle in blue going on in Berthold and Bismarck – in Berthold, elementary students gathered up presents for the Police Department to hand out in the Trinity Pediatric Therapy Department; and in Bismarck, the Fire Department is acting as Santa for 16 organizations around the community.

The Beulah Post Office now has a direct line to Santa. (Beulah Beacon)
