Camp Mystic, a girls-only Christian sleep-away camp located in the Texas Hill Country, was heavily impacted by flash floods that swept through the region earlier this week.

Camp Mystic has operated in the area for decades, offering faith-based summer programming for girls ages 7 through 16. The camp is located along the banks of the Guadalupe River, a popular recreation area that can become dangerous during periods of heavy rain and runoff.
Severe weather alerts had been in place across the region prior to the flooding, with meteorologists warning of potential flash flooding due to saturated grounds and ongoing rain.
Rainfall totals in some areas exceeded 10 inches in a 24-hour period, overwhelming rivers and drainage systems throughout the Hill Country region.
Emergency responders have not confirmed the total number of structures affected at Camp Mystic, but officials noted that multiple buildings were either partially submerged or swept downstream.
No official statement has been issued by Camp Mystic leadership beyond confirming that emergency operations are ongoing.
