2023 Share Your Heart Ball

DEAR FRIENDS,

As we planned this evening to celebrate 40 years of Camp Rainbow Gold, we ran into a challenge. How could we concisely and effectively capture such a beautiful story like Camp’s? But it has been an absolute pleasure trying because it meant looking through thousands of camp memories, like the polaroids of campers jumping in the lake, arm in arm. We read newspaper articles about 500 motorcycles escorting the bus to camp, watched videos of a Peter Pan food fight, remembered dancing under the stars, and reminisced about the determination of campers to reach the top of the climbing wall. With all these photos, videos, and memories piled together, we realized we were looking at a Legacy of Love!

The success of Camp Rainbow Gold programs has been driven by passionate volunteers and generous donors that dream big and believe in changing the world for the better. This legacy — your legacy — that will be discussed for years to come, is the impact Camp Rainbow Gold made on the lives of every camper over the past 40 years. The legacy is laughter around campfires, lifelong friendships, parents’ relief not worrying about how to pay for college, family time together not guided by a hospital schedule, and brothers and sisters getting to have something of their own.

So, tonight is about celebrating this legacy that YOU have made possible. Every volunteer hour and every dollar donated has built this legacy. Your support tonight will add more pictures, newspaper clippings, videos, tales, and memories that will continue to tell the story of Camp Rainbow Gold, the story of love made visible.

Be sure to take a minute tonight and look around at your Legacy of Love! On behalf of the Board of Directors, staff, and the families we serve, thank you. Now, let’s do it all again, for another 40 magical years!

Sincerely,

Elizabeth Lizberg CEO/Executive Director Board President

Welcome to the 2023 Share Your Heart Ball for Camp Rainbow Gold, also known as, our favorite night of the year!

Oh my goodness…I hope you all can feel the sheer excitement and gratitude we have for your presence here tonight. Over the past several years, we have kept the faith, hope, and optimism that we would once again be gathered together in this room to share our mutual love for Camp Rainbow Gold.

This year is especially momentous because it marks the 40th Anniversary of Camp Rainbow Gold and a Legacy of Love created by everyone in this room. What started as a one week summer camp for Idaho kids diagnosed with cancer has evolved into year-round programs and camps, not only for these incredible kids, but also for their siblings, families, and networks.

Oh, and did we mention that your enduring support also helped us purchase a forever home in Fairfield, Idaho, appropriately named “Hidden Paradise.” We are now able to offer our medically supervised activities and camps in our very own backyard. A dream come true!

This evening promises joy, laughter, and some well deserved fun, as we honor and support the hundreds of campers we serve. We could not provide the gift of Camp without all of YOU. So, thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for continuing on this journey with us, and for saying YES.

With love and gratitude,

Kris Nardecchia Co-Founder, Share Your Heart Ball

As Co-founder of Valley Apothecary, Paula Shaffer has been an ardent supporter of Camp Rainbow Gold since moving to the valley in 2011. A business owned and operated by women, Valley Apothecary resonated with Camp Rainbow Gold’s family-centric values and bold focus on community.

In May of 2021, the Shaffer family was shattered by a discovery that would bind them even tighter with the Camp Rainbow Gold family. Two weeks before her pre-K graduation, their daughter Luella was taken to St. Luke’s Wood River ER with a suspected seizure; Luella was a remarkably healthy and spirited 5-year-old with no previous medical conditions. An MRI identified a “mass” on her left temporal lobe and she was transported to St. Luke’s Boise via ambulance. Exhaustive imaging, testing, poking, and pharmacological measures worked to treat the aggressive seizures (from zero to 25+/day) and surgery was identified as the most hopeful. Luella’s determination to graduate pre-K and be reunited with her magnificent brother, Huntley, convinced the neurosurgery team to postpone the surgery for a few days.

Luella returned to Boise the following week to undergo a grueling 9-hour brain surgery and tumor removal. Incredibly, surgeons were able to fully resect the tumor. Subsequent pathology returned another devastating result when the tumor was identified as grade 3 ependymoma, an aggressive cancer of the cerebral spinal fluid. This diagnosis landed the family at the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance and Seattle Children’s Hospital for several weeks of oncology care and daily proton radiation. An additional genetic marker on the tumor required three months of systemic chemotherapy to be added when she returned to Idaho. After months of seemingly impossible days, Luella is now 18 months in remission!

Since diagnosis, Camp Rainbow Gold has been present, offering heartfelt support, hugs, texts, providing invaluable medical resources and welcoming us into our maiden Family Camp, Youth Oncology Camp, and Sibling Camp in 2022.

On July 21, 2021, our Camp Rainbow Gold community said goodbye to a bright light — Heather Feely. If you met Heather once, you instantly felt a connection of warmth, laughter, light and love. To her, you were the only person in the room.

Heather survived two bouts of teenage cancer, and went on to face multiple health challenges over many years. She approached it with the same strength she showed the kids, using her battles for good by offering hope and happiness to a younger generation facing a familiar journey.

Heather gave selflessly to camp, all year long, over two decades. She took on multiple volunteer positions including Counselor, Activity Director, Scholarship Director and Executive Committee member. At one point, camp was short on male counselors for the boys’ cabins. Without hesitation, Heather agreed to assume the role of “male” counselor, quickly earning her the affectionate title of “MR. FEELY!” She giggled when someone called her by that nickname, which stuck until her passing. Her giggle, well that was unforgettable and something she also shared so generously.

As a proud 20 year elementary school teacher, Heather’s passion for education was visible and it was an instant fit when she became the College Scholarship Committee Director. Nothing made her happier than ensuring our kids had a path to continued education, despite the financial hardships surgery and treatments leave behind.

Thank you “Mr. Feely” for the incredible impact you made on the future of Camp Rainbow Gold. Your legacy lives on in our programs, and forever in our hearts.

HEATHER ELIZABETH FEELY (1976-2021)

BRENDAN CHRISTIAN DENNEHY (1969 - 2022)

Brendan Dennehy, affectionately known to many as “B”, lost his courageous battle with brain cancer on April 19, 2022, just a short thirteen months after diagnosis. If you attended any Share Your Heart Ball in the past, you were sure to catch Brendan bustin’ a move on the dance floor til the last song played. He loved this night, and this cause.

Longtime Hailey restaurant owner and Camp Rainbow Gold supporter, Brendan was a genuine friend to everyone he met. His quiet, compassionate manner drew people to him. He was a brother, uncle, son, great friend, business owner, partner, mentor, boss, animal lover, outdoor enthusiast, and proud dad. He is missed forever, most especially by his son Dax whom he shares with Ramie Nelson. Dax was his best friend, the absolute light of his life, and his greatest accomplishment. Their time together was far too short.

As business partner to Share Your Heart Ball co-founders, Kris Nardecchia and Rob Cronin, there’s nothing Brendan and Ramie would say no to when it came to donating resources for the Share Your Heart Ball auction packages. In fact, their Zou 75 restaurant became a HUB for all things Camp Rainbow Gold for two decades. Brendan loved the Camp program so much, he encouraged his late mom SueAnne to spend a week teaching art to the kids in the ‘CRG Art Shack’. It was all in the family.

Brendan never sought the spotlight, despite his Uncle Brian being was one of Hollywood’s most famous A-list actors, or his parents being a permanent part of Hofstra University Theater history. For Brendan, his quiet “good” life in the Wood River Valley, spending time with Dax working on their cars and boats, skiing together on Baldy, or camping at Anderson was exactly where he wanted to be. We love you Brendan - thank you.

“Doctors healed my body. Camp healed my soul.”

REMEMBER THE JOYS OF SUMMER CAMP? LAUGHTER, NEW ACTIVITIES, CAMPFIRES, AND LIFELONG FRIENDS. Now, imagine being told you can’t go. Because you have cancer, diabetes, epilepsy, anxiety, or some other physical, emotional, or medical challenge you never asked for.

In 2019, we purchased 172 acres outside of Fairfield, Idaho. The new home of Camp Rainbow Gold, and Idaho's First Medical Camp. Idaho needs this. Hidden Paradise will be our state’s only medically designed, accessible, and adaptive camp.

Thanks to the leadership of so many — Chuck Graves with McAlvain Construction, Tim Wilcomb with Jordan Wilcomb, the folks at Andersen Construction, Blue Cross of Idaho, Jake Centers with Blackrock, and Carson Palmer to name just a few — not only is the vision for Idaho’s Medical Camp coming to fruition, two years ahead of schedule, we are already hosting our camps and welcoming other nonprofits across the state.

RIVER OF NO RETURN

Pistol Creek Ranch is a private group of cabins located in the middle of the remote 2.4 million acre Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness and two couples (or four people) get to enjoy this exclusive opportunity to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and literally relish in your own private Idaho.

The 158-acre ranch was originally established by Sam Hoppins in 1910, which includes a main lodge and 24 private cabins. Pistol Creek Ranch was grandfathered in as an allowed private property when the United States Congress established the wilderness area in 1980 so that rivers "...shall be preserved in free-flowing condition, and that they and their immediate environments shall be protected for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations."

This 5-day, 4-night stay has limited access which is why the experts at Gem Air out of Boise will fly you into Pistol Creek and provide you a smooth landing on the backcountry airstrip. The flight team has over 100 years combined aviation experience and committed to safe and reliable service. Once you land, Monica Walker, Camp Rainbow Gold's Board President, will be there to welcome you and tour the group around the property. Your troubles will melt away as you settle into your cabin, head to the river for some of the world’s best fly fishing, hike to jaw-dropping views or just relax on the deck as you sip a glass of wine.

You can prepare all your meals, but know that the main lodge is open, serving up the freshest and best backcountry food around This is the first time the cabin owners have opened up their property for use by non-family guests so this is a true ungettable-get and an opportunity to escape for a perfect, peaceful wilderness experience!

INCLUDES

• Five-day, four-night stay for two couples (or four people) at Pistol Creek Cabin

• Round-trip backcountry flight to and from Pistol Creek Ranch from Boise

• $250 gift card for groceries and supplies

• Four 750ml bottles of Clean Crafted Wine
