In a court filing, the operators of the all-girls Christian summer camp said its total debts were in the range of $10 million to $50 million. The filing in the Southern District of Texas said the camp\u2019s total assets were between $1 million and $10 million.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Camp Mystic\u2019s owners and operators have faced intense scrutiny over their response to last year\u2019s devastating July 4 floods. In a scathing , state investigators faulted the camp for inadequate advance emergency planning, storm preparation, evacuations and incident management.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe lessons to be learned from the camp\u2019s inadequate emergency planning and response are worthy of careful study for opportunities to avoid similar future tragedies,\u201d the authors said in an introduction to the 115-page report.<\/p>\n

The report said the hectic task of evacuating the camp fell on the shoulders of just three men: the camp\u2019s owner, his son and a security guard. The Guadalupe River, which runs along the camp, peaked at more than 37 feet at the height of the floods.<\/p>\n

In late April, Camp Mystic officials withdrew their application to reopen this summer. The move came a day after an emotionally charged legislative hearing attended by deceased girls\u2019 parents.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

In a statement at the time, Camp Mystic acknowledged that \u201cprecious lives were lost.\u201d It said the withdrawal of the application was meant to remove any doubt that its leaders have \u201cheard the concerns expressed by grieving families, members of the Texas House and Senate investigating committees, and citizens across our state.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cRespect for those voices requires that we step back now,\u201d camp officials added.<\/p>\n

Wednesday\u2019s eight-page bankruptcy filing was signed by four members of the Eastland family that owns Camp Mystic. The court document does not contain detailed information about the camp\u2019s finances.<\/p>\n
