These three boys have been talking with Santa over the radio for many years! We have them logged back to at least 2021. Santa listened intently through he static, and he's coming to their house soon.

An outdoor contact with Santa, complete with crickets chirping in the background like sleighbells. It hasn't snowed in Orlando, Florida since 1977, but that won't stop Santa and his sleigh from paying a good boy like Greyson a visit!
