Synagogues Iris Mickels of Farmington Hills with her granddaughter Savannah of West Bloomfield get up close and personal with a llama during a special Thanksgiving pro- gram at Congregation Beth Shalom in Oak Park on Nov. 13. Children and grown-ups petted and hugged bunnies, ducks, deer and even a turkey at this program organ- ized by Susan Garkenberg, director of the Gad Shalom Parenting Center. The families created Thanksgiving crafts including pup- pets and turkeys and a family wall hanging displaying handprints of the children, par- ents and grandparents.
