Camp Mystic, a girls' Christian camp in Hunt, Texas, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy nearly a year after devastating floods resulted in the deaths of 25 campers and two counselors. The camp's owner, Richard Eastland, also perished in the disaster. Initially planning to reopen for its 100th anniversary, the camp faced backlash from victims' families and state regulators over safety concerns. Despite efforts to enhance safety measures, including flood warning systems, the camp's reopening was halted due to deficiencies in its emergency operations plan. The total debt listed in the bankruptcy filing exceeds $10 million.
