Judge Orders Camp Mystic to Preserve Flood-Damaged Site Amid Lawsuit
A judge has ruled that Camp Mystic cannot alter the property along the Guadalupe River where a tragic flood claimed the lives of 27 girls and the camp’s executive director last summer. This preservation order is in place to ensure evidence remains intact while a lawsuit filed by the parents of a missing camper proceeds. While the flood-ravaged cabins and other key areas must remain untouched, the ruling does permit the camp to potentially reopen its unaffected Cypress Lake site. Attorneys for both the parents and the camp acknowledged the judge’s decision to safeguard the evidence at the Guadalupe River location.
