Hand Turkey Contest deadline is Nov. 14

The pilgrims might not have invented the hand turkey, but drawing a turkey using the outline of one’s hand is an age-old tradition at Thanksgiving.

Now even if you haven't drawn a hand turkey since 1972, this contest is for readers of all ages. Feel free to make copies of the entry form and include your whole family or group of friends or co-workers.
