📰 News we're reading
1. Six weeks after flooding, debris pickup gets going in Kerr County (star-telegram.com) — Kerrville and Kerr County crews have finally begun curbside pickup of construction and demolition debris from July’s devastating floods, even as federal disaster aid remains uncertain. City and county leaders are hiring contractors, reallocating staff, and setting up temporary debris sites while warning residents that vegetation, appliances, and hazardous materials will be handled in later phases. 
2. Many parents still unsure how or where their children died at Camp Mystic (houstonchronicle.com) — Families of girls killed in the 2025 Camp Mystic flood near Kerrville are still fighting in bankruptcy court to learn exactly how and where their children died. The camp, on the Guadalupe River southwest of town, faces wrongful death suits, possible permanent closure, and questions about whether its valuable Hill Country property might eventually be sold to satisfy claims.
3. FEMA still hasn't approved most disaster aid for Texans hit by this year's July floods (click2houston.com) — Six weeks after July’s floods, Kerrville and Kerr County residents are still waiting on most FEMA disaster aid, leaving damaged homes, bridges, and roads in limbo. Local officials say the community lacks resources for full recovery without federal help, as the Trump administration takes longer than past presidents to approve major disaster declarations statewide.
4. Spiritual Life Office Launches Boone Wednesday Chapels (acuoptimist.com) — A senior ACU student from Kerrville is welcoming a new Wednesday chapel option that blends big-group worship with the interaction of small groups. Held in Boone Family Theatre, the service will feature local church speakers, breakout discussions, and more flexible ways for students to earn chapel credits and explore different denominations.
