FROM THE DESK OF
FATHER BLANEY...
The 14th Leprechaun Hunt© is now over. There is still
the telling of some war stories and scratches are still
visible. I am proud to report that of the five leprechauns
not found, I was able to retrieve all of them in the
following days with the help of a GPS.
The people who participated in the hunt were great
people, friendly and thoughtful.
Besides the awarding of the golden pots followed by the
great food and outstanding entertainment, the greatest
moment was, I think, was when the villagers of Sharing
Meadows provided entertainment. Sheila Clancy worked
with them on the Irish dance and New Element played
music for them to dance to. As it was ending, the band
played faster and faster with the villagers keeping right up.
I don’t know for sure, but there probably were proud tears
in the eyes of their parents. I know there were in my eyes.
And at the end there was an appreciation by the audience
that was very similar to Beatlemania.
there, please let your friends know about it for next year.
Word of mouth is still our best advertisement.
All of the long hours of the villagers sanding hiking
sticks, picking out the black walnuts for the zucchini bread
and Waldorf salad, weaving rugs, painting ceramics etc.,
etc. came to fruition in our guests’ genuine approval.
The Leprechaun Hunt© was a lot of work by many
dedicated people. One of our regulars was in intensive
care in a hospital at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester,
Minnesota but Chuck Forcey and his wife, Marcia, made
sure that the corn was roasted for our guest’s enjoyment.
Chuck died ten days later knowing that he did his best.
May God welcome Chuck to his heavenly home and
comfort Marcia with happy memories of their life
together.
This was the best Leprechaun Hunt© in the numbers of
people attending, funds raised and family fun. If you
weren’t there, you truly missed a great event. If you were
Also God bless all the workers! There were over 100
people who were able to give a great time to our guests at
the Leprechaun Hunt©.
CAMP SHARING MEADOWS
What a remarkable summer 2008 was at Sharing Meadows for both campers and staff! We saw first hand that it does
take a village to put on meaningful, wonderful summer camps! We are eager to begin the fall season of mini-camps
starting with September 12, 13, and 14. For the first time, Sandy will send some invites by email to families and
agencies that have provided email addresses to her, while others will be sent by mail as usual. If you don’t receive an
invitation and want to join us, please call Sandy at 219-778-2585.
Won’t you consider serving God’s precious other-abled individuals by volunteering to be a counselor, nurse or cook
at one of the fall camps? These Values Retreats are as meaningful and uplifting for the staff as for the loving campers!
A perfect staff has the energy of high school and college age volunteers, as well as the wisdom and patience of retired
folk because the campers that come range from 18-75 years of age. Come enjoy a bean-bag tournament, a DJ dance,
chair volleyball and special time with God. Find that joyful child within you once again. Volunteer at one of our camps!
Fall mini-camp dates:
Sept. 12-14
Oct. 3-5
Oct. 24-26
Nov. 14-16
Dec. 5-7

THOUGHTS FROM THE
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
By Kathleen Kelly
I was flipping through a calendar that features various
inspirational quotes and one in particular caught my eye:
“After the verb to Love, to Help is the most beautiful
verb in the world.” What a powerful thought! The more I
thought about it, the more I realized that it described our
community perfectly. So much good has taken place at
Sharing Meadows because people love us and help us.
Countless individuals and groups offer their help
throughout the year but it is especially evident during the
summer with the faithful volunteers who arrive each
week to cut acres of grass on the property, our summer
camp that runs so smoothly with the help of our
dedicated staff, and the hundreds of people who plan,
organize and execute the Leprechaun Hunt© to make it
our biggest fundraiser each year. All of these beautiful
people realize that after the verb to love, to help is the
most beautiful verb in the world.
I have been privileged to work with numerous persons
who help in so many different ways. Each one is valued
and appreciated for sharing their time and talents with us
and each one is truly making a difference. At this time I’d
like to focus on one such caring friend, Chuck Forcey. I
first met Chuck over twenty years ago (pre Sharing
Meadows days) when we were both members of Sacred
Heart Church in Michigan City. The church hosted a
Thanksgiving dinner and many years I worked side by side
with Chuck as he carved turkeys and served our guests. No
job was too big or small for him and he welcomed each
person like treasured guests. Thanksgiving remains a
treasured holiday filled with happy memories of those
dinners and time shared with others.
Chuck’s involvement grew once we began developing
the community of Sharing Meadows. When the first
three homes were built, he (who owned several La-ZBoy furniture galleries in the area) invited me to go to
one of his stores to select furniture. When I arrived, the
manager gave me some tags and told me to mark
anything I wanted. I selected living room and dining
room furniture for all of the homes and left with a feeling
of accomplishment, knowing that we had high quality,
comfortable furniture for our new villagers. The next day
Chuck handed the itemized invoice for the furniture to
Father Blaney marked “Paid in Full” and he went on to
do that for the next two villages.
The first Leprechaun Hunt© was held in 1995 to help
support the operation of the residential program and
Chuck and his wife, Marcia were involved from the
beginning. They thought an auction would be a good
addition to the event and donated two recliners for it.
When the idea of T-shirts was mentioned Chuck
contacted his source and next thing I knew, a case of
green Leprechaun Hunt© shirts was there, waiting to be
Chuck and Marcia Forcey
sold on the big day. Fresh roasted sweet corn was on the
menu and it was prepared by an organization that had a
corn roaster but when they charged us a large fee for
their services, Chuck bought his own corn roaster and
made sure we always had plenty of corn to satisfy our
guests. No matter what we needed, Chuck did his best to
provide it.
When the guest house was constructed, we named it
“The Forcey House” as a small token of our gratitude for
the many acts of kindness Chuck and Marcia Forcey
always showed to us. By that time they had sold their
business so Chuck and Marcia took me to a furniture
store owned by a friend of theirs. While Chuck and his
friend talked, Marcia and I went through the store,
choosing furniture for the home and of course, the bill
was taken care of. The Forcey House is a cozy,
comfortable home and remains an enduring reminder of
the Forcey’s dedication to our mission.
Chuck and Marcia embraced our mission and have
always been there when we needed them. They served as
honorary chairpersons of our Share Our Dreams Gala for
the past two years and did much to promote the event to
their friends and colleagues. The Leprechaun Hunt©
remained their favorite event, however, and this year,
their dedication went above and beyond when they made
arrangements for the sweet corn and the corn roaster to
be delivered to Sharing Meadows even though Chuck
was in a hospital, gravely ill and Marcia was by his side.
Share Foundation lost a treasured friend when God
called Chuck home. I grieve for our loss but take comfort
in witnessing his presence at Sharing Meadows and
realizing that his goodness will continue. He truly
believed that loving and helping are the two most
beautiful verbs in the world and that’s the way he lived
his life.
Rest in peace, dear Chuck. You will be missed and
remembered fondly.
