Camp Mystic is grieving the loss of 27 campers and counselors following the catastrophic flooding in the Texas Hill Country.

Rescue operations are ongoing in Central Texas after flash flooding along the Guadalupe River left 23 girls from Camp Mystic unaccounted for. Officials say dozens have died as catastrophic floods continue to ravage the Hill Country.
