Fathers Turn Grief Into Camp Safety Reform | Dallas News

Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description

One year after a catastrophic flood at Camp Mystic in Texas killed 27 campers—including two young girls— their fathers are turning grief into a national safety movement. Fueled by lawsuits and legislative action, they’ve pushed for sweeping reforms across Texas, Oklahoma, and Alabama, including mandatory warning systems and bans on cabins in flood zones. Their advocacy has birthed the Heaven’s 27 Camp Safety Act and sparked a new foundation to keep the momentum alive. Though camp owners blame unprecedented flooding and underfunded warnings, the fathers remain resolute, driven by their daughters’ memories and a vision of safer camps nationwide.
