Overview
- Six 10-day terms are scheduled from May 30 to Aug. 9, 2026, with enrollment not yet open and April tours planned for families.
- New systems include four flood-warning river monitors at Cypress Lake and participation in a roughly 100-sensor regional LoRaWAN network for early high-water detection and evacuation.
- Each cabin will have two-way radios receiving NOAA alerts, with an outdoor PA and cabin speakers, redundant fiber-plus-satellite internet, and higher-capacity generators to keep communications online.
- The Guadalupe River site, where the deadly flooding occurred, will remain closed due to damage, and the Cypress Lake property—constructed above mapped floodplains—did not flood during the storm.
- Multiple wrongful-death lawsuits alleging gross negligence remain active as some families, including parents of the still-missing child, object to reopening, and camp leaders say they will exceed the Heaven’s 27 Camp Safety Act rules finalized by state health officials in late November.
