The Courtyard Newark-University of Delaware campus hotel has announced the return of Santa’s Mailbox.

Letters to the North Pole are being collected in a special mailbox near the hotel entrance and local children and hotel guests are encouraged to participate in this annual tradition to help kick off the holiday season.

With the help of hotel employees, Santa will be writing personal notes back to everyone that drops off a letter before Dec. 15. In order to get a note from the North Pole, those who drop off letters are asked to include their name and full mailing address.
