URGENT: Camp Mystic to Reopen After Devastating Floods Claimed 27 Lives Last Summer.

Breaking News: Camp Mystic to Reopen After Devastating Floods Camp Mystic, a summer camp in Texas, plans to reopen next summer after a devastating flood killed 27 people last year. The decision was announced via email to families of the victims on Monday. The camp's reopening comes despite the tragic loss of life and widespread destruction caused by the July floods that swept through the Guadalupe River area. The floods also claimed at least 136 lives across Texas, with many homes and vehicles washed away. Camp Mystic is situated in a low-lying area known as "flash flood alley," which made it particularly vulnerable to the rapid rise of floodwaters. The camp's safety procedures will be revamped to meet new legislation championed by families of the victims. The camp has announced plans to build a memorial on its grounds, honoring those who lost their lives in the disaster. Families of the victims were informed about the reopening and memorial plans via email. This is a developing story as more information becomes available. *This is a developing story.
