Canadian camps see safety planning ‘ripple effect’ after Texas flood, organizers say

July 9, 2025

Canadian summer camp organizers say they expect a ripple effect of bolstered emergency plans and preparations this summer after more than two dozen campers and camp counsellors were killed by severe flash floods in Texas on Friday.

“I would be shocked if there aren’t a lot of people that are looking at this and taking pause, even reflecting on their own policies,” said Brad Halsey, an Alberta summer camp director and board vice chair of the Alberta Camping Association.
