Donations to Red Cross is what the Sheriff suggested. Might contact Team Rubicon. they may be sending people who would take things with them.

Just flush your money down the toilet, it would be put to better use. I will never give money to the Red Cross.

Some information from my wife who is directly in contact with some Mystic staff and was once office staff:

She says that the map is relatively correct. Twins I, Twins II, and Bubble Inn are the highest elevation cabins along with Giggle Box and Wiggle Inn on the portion of the campground called the "Flats." They are next to the central office intentionally, and at the same elevations, such that those buildings are the last to need evacuation.

The elevation of the aforementioned cabins, the Office, and the Rec Hall are all 30-35 feet above the normal water level. There is no precedent, even in the '87 flood, for water to come up to the level of the Office/Bubble Inn/Twins. She found from a friend that the plan was likely to keep those campers in place while lower elevation cabins successfully evacuated to the Rec Hall (as evidenced by the photo of the older campers walking in the rain towards the Rec Hall). The waters then rose far beyond what was ever planned for and there was no more time to evacuate the three youngest cabins. Allegedly Dick drove his truck through the floodwaters to try and reach them once they realized it was cresting the hill they are situated on. Then the flood wave came. Even though they are limestone structures, someone told her an entire cabin, Twins or Bubble, may have been washed away with campers inside. For that to happen, the flood waters have to have been 35+ feet above normal. A truly unprecedented situation.

There is still no official word on Dick Eastland being alive. Everyone she is in contact with is tight-lipped. She hypothesizes they are waiting to find the missing girls before drawing attention to the loss of one of the camp directors.

I would give to local churches or first responders. The Red Cross sucks.

This is who y'all are praying for.

My family is praying hard for this sweet girl and all of the others.

During the Katy flood with Harvey, I was very connected to efforts to get the Red Cross involved. It was very frustrating. A group you expected to be first to help presented us with a ton of "conditions" with their commitment. We walked away and did it ourselves.

Praying for your family, Derm

For this wondering what the surge looked like; this was from downstream from Kerrville later that morning (apparently).... huge rush of water:

The water doesn't rise slowly, you get hit with a surge. This is what the surge looked like downstream from Kerrville, in Center Point, as it arrived yesterday afternoon. https://t.co/tBLmKZlxiv

Praying hard for Mary Grace and these other sweet girls.

Thanks for all the prayers.
Lord have mercy.

Thanks for sharing, that's incredible and scary

And in the dead of night.

It would be chaotic enough in the middle of the day.

I don't know how there could be a worse scenario than this.

Thanks for the update. Does the camp have 24/7 staff or folks on night shift?

---

Yes. There is a night shift guard who is on the clock until 6am and would have been able to notify the main office of the emergency. At 2am they were already evacuating lower-elevation cabins containing the 10-13 year old age groups before the flooding had started. The flood wave happened at 4am.

Right. I think that's a key thing here is that these weren't slow rising waters. This was a wave.

Makes planning basically impossible.
