“We recognize that returning to Camp Mystic carries both hope and heartache,” Camp Mystic's owners wrote in a letter to families this month. “For many of your daughters, this return is not simple, but it is a courageous step in their healing journey.”

It is unclear how many girls will return to Camp Mystic when the camp begins enrollment next month, but a spokesperson said there is “strong interest.” The camp's owner, Dick Eastland, died in the flood and his family has vowed to enhance safety measures before reopening, including two-way radios in every cabin and new flood warning river monitors.

The families of seven campers and two counselors at Camp Mystic who died during the July 4 Hill Country floods sued the camp Monday, alleging that its owners’ negligence resulted in a “self-created disaster” that led to the fatalities.

Twenty-five campers and two counselors were among the more than 130 people that died in this summer’s flash flooding near Kerrville along the Guadalupe River.

Texas river flood leaves at least 43 dead across two counties; children's camp evacuated by helicopter.

The National Guard was deployed in Texas on Friday after a devastating river flood killed at least 25 people and swept away dozens of children at a local Christian camp.

Heavy rain on Friday morning caused the Guadalupe River to rise nearly 30 feet in 45 minutes.

State officials confirmed Friday night that at least 43 people are dead, including adults and children. Among the deaths, 24 were reported in Kerr County and one was in Kendall County.

Between 23 and 25 people remain missing from Camp Mystic, an all-girls private Christian camp along the Guadalupe River, according to officials. The camp had more than 750 attendees. 

Kerrville Mayor Joe Herring Jr. issued a disaster declaration amid emergency evacuations. 

Guadalupe River flooding leaves Kerrville homes devastated, rescue efforts underway.

 Major damage is being reported along the Guadalupe River in Kerrville after deadly flooding struck the area on the Fourth of July.  At Comfort, the Guadalupe River reached a current level of 29.86 feet after rising 22 feet in just 30 minutes between 9-9:30 a.m. Meanwhile, at Kerrville, the river rose 21.6 feet in one hour, from 3:45 a.m. to 4:45 a.m., with the current level now at 11.64 feet, showing the rapid and severe flooding impacting the area. Homes near the river have been inundated with water, some swept off their foundations, while others remain surrounded by debris and mud. Residents are trying to save what is left. Vehicles have also been severely impacted—many were submerged, displaced, or destroyed by the force of the floodwaters. Streets near the river are littered with debris, and emergency crews continue to conduct rescues and assess damage.

Seven people died in Texas and more than 100 were injured as the severe weather swept through the state, Gov. Greg Abbott said at a news conference Sunday evening.

Abbott said 106 counties in Texas were under disaster declarations.

More than 200 homes or structures were destroyed and another 120 were damaged, Texas officials said.

Video shows Cooke County residents hiding in a Shell gas station as a tornado hit the area Saturday night. The tornado begins to tear apart the building with residents scrambling for safety.

No one inside the gas station was killed, according to WFAA.

Abbott mourned those who were killed in the storms, saying, "There's only one thing that cannot be rebuilt, and that's a loss of life -- That's why we always stress to everybody, whatever you do in any type of storm, put life first."

A 2-year-old and a 5-year-old from the same family were killed in Cooke County, Texas, officials said. The children were among the seven people who were killed in the area, which is north of Dallas.

The tornado that battered Cooke County was preliminarily rated an EF-2 with winds up to 135 mph.

The storm tore through a roadside travel center near Valley View, Texas, before continuing through a community of manufactured homes, according to Cooke County Sheriff Ray Sappington.

More than 60 people were injured

Most of those fatalities occurred at the nearby FRF Estates in Valley View, a community of manufactured homes about 60 miles northwest of Dallas, according to Sappington.

He said emergency response crews were combing the development for survivors Sunday morning amid "major damage."

Another hard-hit area was the Gateway AP Travel Center in Valley View, where many people pulled off the road to seek shelter in the parking lot or in the truck stop's restrooms and 60 to 80 people were injured at the facility. 

It would really help if people just stayed away right now, gave us a few hours to get our search and rescue done," Sappington said. "I know some people were out of the area and trying to get back, but it's dangerous out there. Power lines are down. There have been reports of gas leaks. It's just dangerous right now. Just give us some time to do what we need to do. We're trying to still rescue people. The best thing people can do right now is give us a little time."
