Camp Mystic is a private non-denominational Christian girls' summer camp in unincorporated Kerr County, Texas. It is set on a 725-acre campus consisting of two neighboring sites 6 miles southwest of Hunt, near the confluence of the South Fork Guadalupe River and Cypress Creek. The camp serves girls aged eight to seventeen. The camp was severely damaged in the July 4, 2025 Central Texas floods when 28 people from the camp died, including 25 campers aged 8–10, two counselors aged 18 and 19, and the camp’s director 70-year-old Dick Eastland. The body of Cile Steward has not been recovered. The camp was hosting 750 campers and Under Texas state regulations, the camp was required to have an emergency plan 'in case of a disaster', which officials from the Texas Department of State Health Services approved on July 2, 2025. The state of Texas does not approve or retain copies of such plans - camps are only required to demonstrate that a plan exists. The camp was not accredited by the American Camp Association, which recommends that campers and staff be trained to respond to natural disasters. In November 2025, the families of six children and the two counselors killed in the flooding filed two lawsuits against the camp’s owners and other parties, claiming negligence. The suit claims that despite the camp being located in a known high-risk flood zone, campers were told to remain in their cabins, the camp had not adopted a legally required evacuation plan, and staff prioritized saving equipment over evacuation, creating what the filings described as a 'self-created' disaster. Separate lawsuits were also filed by the families of two other deceased campers.
