'Tis the Season, right?
Several Christmases ago, I heard a story on NPR about how back in the dark ages, before Internet, a Colorado Springs Sears and Roebuck printed an add for kids to call Santa. Unfortunately, the number was misprinted, and kids were directed to CONAD (the Continental Air Defense Command). But the confusion gave the commander-in-chief a brilliant idea. They track airplanes, right? And other flying objects? Why not Santa?
So from then on, they have. And you can, too. Through the present day North American Aerospace Defense Command.

Where is Santa right now? Go find him. And tell your kids.
