A beloved summer camp in the Catskill Mountains is facing an uncertain future after being notified by the New York State Department of Health that its license to reopen may not be granted. Camp Mystic, a 95-year-old institution that has provided a traditional summer camp experience for thousands of children, has been closed since 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, as the camp prepares to welcome back its young campers, it is facing a new hurdle: a review of its operations and safety protocols that has raised concerns among health officials. The decision will have far-reaching implications for the camp's owners, staff, and the thousands of children who have made memories at Camp Mystic over the years.
