WKVI Tapped Into Santa's Phone Line!
We have tapped into the North Pole phone system! What that means is that now your kids can leave messages for Santa on his voice mail, telling him what they want for Christmas. The number is 772-6241, and the extension is 135. The line will be open 24/7. Select messages will be played back on my morning show. The line will be up and running until December 23rd. Merry Christmas!
