At Camp Mystic, a Christian summer camp in Hunt, Texas, where officials are grieving the loss of 27 children and counselors, belongings of the young campers were strewn about the flooded floors of a dormitory, while other items, including a pink backpack and a Camp Mystic T-shirt, were found along the bloated Guadalupe River, photos show.

In a tragic turn of events, happy memories recorded just hours before the deadly floods have emerged from Camp Mystic.

Surviving campers sang hymns as they drove past the damage left by the floods. Days earlier, they were having fun and playing games at the all-girls’ Christian summer camp.
