A summer camp for girls shortened due to a deadly disaster

Mystic camp, a Christian girls camp sitting on the banks of the Guadalobi River in Texas, was a place for laughter, prayer and adventure just a few days ago.

Among the girls in the camp, the eight-year-old Rene Samsterla was smiling from ear to ear in a picture taken in one of those days-“spending her life time” with her friends.

But the next day, the camp was, and many other little girls turned into a site for one of the bloody flooding disasters in the last history of Texas.

Smajstrla was among those who were killed.

“She will live forever her best life in mystic camp,” wrote her uncle Sean Salta on Facebook.

The photos show strange effects: a two -bunk family still exists – selected from the summer camp tragicly broken.

The destructive personal property is spread through the interior designs, as children have once gathered to study the Bible and the camp’s fire.

At least 59 people – Among them is Camp Live for a long timeRichard “Dick” Istland and many young camps – dead.

Eleven of the camp and a missing camp still. Many girls who were missing were missing in a low cabin less than 500 feet (150 meters) from the river bank, the American media report.

Camp Mystic has been operated by the same family for generations, providing girls with an opportunity to grow “spiritually” in a “healthy” Christian atmosphere, according to its website.

Families from all over Texas and the United States send their daughters every summer for swimming, boat, horse riding and lifelong friendships.

But the beauty of the Guadalobi River, which attracts a lot to the region, has also proven dead.

The flood water arrived with a little warning, tearing the picturesque river, which includes about 20 youth camp.

Although the Mystic camp has suffered from the biggest losses, officials say the size of the disaster is long.

Nearly, Heart Heart O ‘The Heart O’ Hills also faced floods.

Its participant owner and director Jin Ragsaldale were among the dead. Fortunately, the camp was out of the session at the time.

A statement issued by the camp said: “Most of those who were in the camp at that time were on high land … We are sad about the loss of a woman who affected an endless life and they were a strong and strong definition.”

Questions are now escalating about the reason for many camps near the river, and why no more was done to evacuate children in time.

Congress member Chib Roy, who represents the area, admitted to destroying him for caution against early blame.

“The response will be,” we must transfer all these camps – why will you have camps here with water? ”

“Well, you have camps next to the water because they are next to the water. You have camps near the river because it is a beautiful and wonderful place.”

With the continued recovery efforts, families are waiting for the news of the missing. Search and rescue teams – which move on a boat, and others are combed through debris – operate around the clock.

Care Sherif Larry La Betha said on Sunday that the search for survivors continued.

“Until we can make them reunite families, we will not stop,” said City director Dalton Rice.

Governor Greg Abbott announced the state of emergency, and officials warn that the final outcome may rise in the coming days.
