Camp Mystic, the Texas girls camp where 27 died in devastating floods last year, must make a slew of changes in order to reopen this summer, the Texas Department of State Health Services said.
Several issues — including emergency and parent notification plans — require attention to “meet full compliance” before the Central Texas operation can welcome campers this summer, officials said.
The Texas health department outlined the issues in an emergency plan deficiency letter in response to the camp’s application for a license to reopen. The camp had planned to open its Cypress Lake location, which is nearby but not at the same site where the campers died.
The camp has 45 days to make corrections to its plans and resubmit them to the state health department.
