I've never been to Camp Stewart, and I can't say that I know much about the place. But a guy I went to college with in the late 1980s was a counselor there for a couple of summers, and he gave me a staff shirt that I still have today. And so when I heard of the catastrophic flooding that occurred this past weekend in towns like Hunt, Texas, that sit along the Guadalupe River, I felt at least a casual familiarity with the area.
At this time I have no idea how the Camp Stewart property, campers, or staff fared in the flood. Most of the news coverage has focused on the tragedy experienced by nearby Camp Mystic for girls: the latest I've heard is that they lost 27 campers and counselors. At the very least, I expect Camp Stewart's 2025 season has been upended entirely.
