On July 4, 2025 Texas’s worst floods in decades claimed the lives of more than 130 people across the region. In one of the most tragic incidents the floods devastated Camp Mystic, a girl’s camp located on the banks of the Guadalupe River in Kerr county. Twenty-five young girls, two teenage counselors, and the camp’s longtime owner, Dick Eastland, all died after flood waters inundated the property.
