WASHINGTON, June 24 (Reuters) - The operators of Camp Mystic, where 28 campers and staff members died in catastrophic flooding in Texas last year, filed for bankruptcy protection on Wednesday, the New York Times reported.
The company in charge of the camp cited total debts exceeding $10 million and assets that were between $1 and $10 million, in a Chapter 11 filing, according to the report.

The camp said in April that it had decided not to open this summer after previously seeking approval from state regulators to do so.
The deaths came after heavy downpours in Texas Hill Country transformed the Guadalupe River into a killer torrent on July 4, 2025.
