For Bob and Diana K of California, following Santa just adds another layer of excitement to the family’s fun.
“We get together Christmas Eve at our daughter’s home near San Diego,” Bob explains. Years ago, when the family’s youngest granddaughters were still in diapers, they put out milk, cookies and carrots for Santa and his reindeer. Then they trotted out to Bob and Diana’s vehicle to push the blue OnStar button to see exactly where Santa was on his annual journey.
Even though the granddaughters are now older, they still ask to find out where Santa is. “It fits in very nicely with the rest of the things we do on Christmas Eve,” Bob says. “We call OnStar to see how much time they have before they have to get their fannies to bed,” he laughs.
OnStar helping them find Santa is “a neat way to give back to the community in a fun, positive way,” Bob adds.
