Camp Mystic Withdraws Its Application to Reopen This Summer

Camp Mystic, the Texas Christian girls camp where 27 campers and counselors were killed by a devastating flood last July, is withdrawing its application for a 2026 summer camp license as it prepares to welcome hundreds of campers back next month. The decision follows an emotional hearing this week in which victims’ families called on lawmakers not to allow the camp to reopen. NBC’s Priscilla Thompson reports for TODAY.
