Welcome to IMPACT!

Hello friends,

Twinkle here. Yes, that Twinkle. Clipboard in hand, cocoa nearby, glitter absolutely everywhere. Santa asked me to pop down your chimney today. Or front door. Or sliding glass door. More on that in a minute.

Since it is Christmas Eve, we decided to pause the hustle, quiet the bells just a bit, and bring you something warm, magical, and delightfully unofficial straight from the North Pole Press Office. No business. No promotions. Just Christmas.

So grab a blanket, gather the humans big and small, and let me tell you a few things you may not know.

🦌 How the Reindeer Really Got Their Names

(As told by someone who files their flight plans)

Dasher

Dasher earned his name during reindeer training camp when he took off so fast that Santa spilled hot cocoa on three elves and a filing cabinet. He has been first out of the gate ever since and still insists on warming up early.

Dancer

Dancer was named after prancing through the snow whenever music played in the stables. Bells, humming, or off-key elf caroling all count. Rhythm is optional. Enthusiasm is not.

Prancer

Prancer believes posture matters. Head high, hooves perfect, antlers polished. He practices runway walks on the ice and refuses to fly unless everyone looks presentable.

Vixen

Vixen is clever and quick-witted, known for finding shortcuts through snowstorms and reminding the others where they left their antler covers. She definitely knows she is the smartest one in the group.

Comet

Comet was named after the glowing trail he leaves when he takes off at full speed. Also because he once accidentally outran the sleigh and had to circle back pretending it was intentional.

Cupid

Cupid has a soft spot for baby animals, lost mittens, and emotional elf stories. He keeps everyone calm on long flights and once convinced Blitzen to apologize first.

Donner

Donner brings the thunder. Literally. His takeoffs sound dramatic, powerful, and slightly intimidating. Very sweet off-duty. Extremely serious about his job.

Blitzen

Blitzen moves like lightning and thinks fast too. He handles tight airspace, sudden weather shifts, and unexpected cat sightings on rooftops with heroic precision.

Rudolph

Rudolph arrived later than the rest and spent a long time wondering if he belonged. Turns out his glowing nose was exactly what the team needed. He now leads with confidence, kindness, and the best night vision in the business.

🔑 Chimney Question Answered

(You are welcome)

Many of you have wondered how Santa gets into homes without chimneys. The answer is simple and classified. Until now.

Santa carries a Magic Master Key, enchanted by the North Pole Locksmith Guild. It opens front doors, back doors, apartment doors, and yes, even those tricky hotel-style ones. The key works silently, locks everything back up, and never triggers alarms. We are professionals.

🎁 A Few More North Pole Insider Notes

• Reindeer snack breaks are scheduled every 500 miles and involve carrots, oats, and exactly one candy cane per flight.

• Elves track Santa’s route using glitter-based GPS. It is very accurate. Very sparkly.

• Santa reads notes left by kids and adults alike. Especially the ones asking for peace, kindness, or a really good nap.

• If you hear a soft bell tonight, that means everything is going exactly according to plan.

✨ From Twinkle to You

Christmas Eve is not about perfection. It is about warmth, laughter, imagination, and believing that a little magic still exists. Whether your night is quiet or chaotic, full of tradition or wonderfully different, please know this:

You are seen. You are loved. And the North Pole is rooting for you.

Now if you will excuse me, I have a sleigh departure briefing and twelve cookies to approve.

With sparkle and sincerity,
Twinkle
