Camp Mystic Files for Bankruptcy Following Fatal Texas Floods and CriticismPreviousNext

Camp Mystic, a Texas Christian summer camp where 28 people died in severe flash floods last July, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy due to debts exceeding $10 million and assets between $1 million and $10 million. State investigators criticized the camp's emergency preparedness and response in a recent report. The camp faces multiple wrongful-death lawsuits and withdrew plans to reopen after a legislative hearing with victims' families.
