The Daughters They Lost: Camp Mystic Parents Speak Out

from The Dr. Phil Podcast

Parents who sent their daughters to Camp Mystic, an all‑girls Christian camp on the Guadalupe River, relive the joy of that summer and the horror of the flash flood that followed. They describe the girls they lost, the riverside cabins in “Flash Flood Alley,” and the moments they realized this was not just a freak storm, but a preventable disaster they say was made worse by bad policies, missed warnings, and a camp that promised their children would be safe.​Thank you to our sponsors:NMLS 182334, https://nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
