The girls at the Bubble Inn began their journey of camping on June 29 at Camp Mystic with huge smiles on their faces.
A shocking new image recently portrayed all 13 girls and the two counselors in spotless white attire, including white sneakers and skirts, beaming with huge smiles.
However, little were they aware of what was to unfold before their eyes, five days later. Every person in that picture was swept away in the recent Texas floods. The tragedy took place at about 4 am on Friday as the girls were sleeping just a few hundred feet from the Guadalupe River.
The remains of the 10 girls who were between the ages of 8 to 9 have now been recovered, and their families are shattered.
Three girls and counselor Chloe Childress are still missing. Sources shared how the girls were housed in the flatlands area that is nearest to the river. Some of the cabins were just 225 feet from the bank, and the older girls stayed on the higher ground on Senior Hill.
After the freak rainstorm took place, a month’s worth of rain on the Texas Hill Country in just two hours, rose 20 feet in a matter of minutes, cresting upstream in Hunt, Texas at nearly 6:30 am.
The camp, known for housing 750 girls, is now counting 27 victims dead, with 10 girls missing, alongside their counselor.
