Fun Fact: Because of its popular name, the post office in Santa Claus, Indiana, receives thousands of letters to Santa from all over the world each year. Volunteers known as “Santa’s Elves” ensure each child receives a reply from Santa Claus; this tradition has been around since at least 1914. Every year, the post office also creates a special Christmas pictorial postmark for use during the month of December. This practice attracts mail from all over the world wishing to have the official Santa Claus postmark.
