Bubble Inn saw generations of 8-year-olds enter as strangers and emerge as confident young ladies equipped with new skills from the great outdoors and lifelong friends – bonds that would one day prove vital in the face of unfathomable tragedy.

The family of Dick and Tweety Eastland, the owners of Camp Mystic, where at least 27 died during the devastating Texas floods, is focusing on helping the families of campers and counselors while trying to process their own grief.

The July Fourth flood moved so quickly in the middle of the night that it caught many off guard in a county that lacked a warning system.

Katherine Ferruzzo had been accepted to the University of Texas at Austin for the fall semester and planned to become a Special Education teacher, her family said.

Young girls, camp employees and vacationers are among the at least 120 people who died when Texas' Guadalupe River flooded.

Search and recovery teams are also looking for a missing camp counselor who hasn't been seen since the July Fourth flooding catastrophe.

The owner of Camp Mystic not only died trying to save campers, but also spent decades of his life warning about the dangers of flooding along the Guadalupe River, recently advocating for new flood warning systems.
