Over two dozen perished and over twenty children went missing from a summer camp for girls following fierce floods in Texas.
**Missing Girls Remain Unaccounted for After Central Texas Floods**
In the wake of devastating floods that struck Central Texas around July 4, 2025, a search for 23 missing girls from Camp Mystic, a Christian girls-only summer camp near the Guadalupe River, continues[1]. The floods caused the Guadalupe River to reach its second-highest recorded level, contributing to the dangerous conditions.
Search and rescue efforts are ongoing, with family members actively involved and local authorities coordinating the operation. Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick confirmed the number of missing girls during a press conference, highlighting the severity of the situation[1]. Among those unaccounted for is an 8-year-old girl named Hadley Hannah from Dallas, whose father is personally participating in the search on-site in Kerr County[1].
The floods have had a tragic impact on the region, with at least 24 deaths reported in Kerr County and one in Kendall County due to the floods[1]. The disappearance of these young girls has heightened concerns and mobilized significant rescue and recovery efforts. Families and officials continue to work together in hopes of locating the missing children amid this ongoing crisis[1].
Helicopters, nine rescue teams, and people on the ground are conducting a massive search for the missing children. Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick has asked for people in Texas to pray for the safe return of the missing children[1]. The U.S. President, Donald Trump, has promised federal aid for the affected areas, ensuring all involved counties will have access to necessary resources[1].
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed a disaster declaration, ensuring all involved counties will have access to resources[1]. The flooding occurred after months' worth of heavy rain fell in a matter of hours in Texas. The flooding caused flash flooding of a nearby river in central Kerr County.
As the search for the missing children continues, the community remains hopeful for a positive outcome. Updates on the situation will be provided as more information becomes available.
