SAN ANTONIO – Nearly nine months have passed since the catastrophic Fourth of July floods in the Hill Country.<\/p>\n
The floods claimed the lives of 27 Camp Mystic campers and counselors.<\/p>\n
Now, the camp has officially filed with the state to reopen.<\/p>\n
News 4 San Antonio\u2019s Kristina De Leon has more on what comes next.<\/p>\n
State officials confirm that Camp Mystic has officially applied for a license renewal to reopen in the coming months for the upcoming summer season.<\/p>\n
A license renewal application was received by the state on the final day for youth camps to file for a license or license renewal.<\/p>\n
The camp\u2019s Cypress Lake campus is aiming to reopen this summer.<\/p>\n
Under a court order last month, the camp\u2019s Guadalupe campus cannot be altered, modified, or used for camp operation purposes. That location is still part of an ongoing investigation.<\/p>\n
In a statement from Camp Mystic, they said in part:<\/p>\n
Camp Mystic has submitted a license application for Camp Mystic Cypress Lake with the Texas Department of State Health Services. The Camp Mystic Cypress Lake campus is in compliance with all aspects of the state\u2019s new camp safety laws and has implemented additional safety measures that exceed the requirements of those laws.<\/p>\n
The Camp Mystic Cypress Lake campus was not affected by the floods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SAN ANTONIO – Nearly nine months have passed since the catastrophic Fourth of July floods in the Hill…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":77980,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[82,84,83],"class_list":{"0":"post-230166","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-antonio","8":"tag-san-antonio","9":"tag-san-antonio-headlines","10":"tag-san-antonio-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230166","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=230166"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230166\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/77980"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=230166"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=230166"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=230166"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
