🌟 👏 🫶La Hacienda would like to extend our deepest gratitude to our local community and first
responders who have stood by us during this past month of historic flooding.

A special thank you to Phil Johnston, Exotic Game Management, for safely flying our staff to and from campus, ensuring continuity of care. To the Hunt Volunteer Fire Department, your tireless dedication, life-saving efforts, and commitment to this community have been nothing short of heroic.

We’re also incredibly grateful to:
- Kerrville Public Utility Board (KPUB) for working around the clock to restore power
- Hill Country Telephone Cooperative (HCTC) for quickly restoring phone and internet service.
- Kerr County Sheriff's Office for keeping our roadways safe and campus secure
- Five Star Rental jumped through hoops to get us a skid steer the day after.

And to the countless first responders and volunteers—some traveling from across the country and even around the world—thank you for showing up, serving selflessly, and reminding us all
what true community looks like. We are humbled, grateful, and proud to be part of such a resilient and compassionate community.

I (Sissy Goff) spent six of my most formative summers on the Guadalupe River at a girls’ camp just down the road from Camp Mystic, laughing and learning and having cokes and candy at the Hunt Store at the end of camp. Like you, I’ve been heartbroken for the Mystic families, and the entire Hill Country community. The impact has rippled through us all. And, there are parents who are having to and will continue to have hard conversations with their kids. Parents who are helplessly watching their girls (and boys) grieve. Sitting with siblings to talk about the unspeakable and unimaginable. Mystic families, every single one of us would do anything we can to help. And here’s what I would be so honored to do, after several of you have asked for resources for your schools and churches and friends:

At 10am and 4:30 pm tomorrow, I’m going to host two zooms for any parents/grandparents/family members/friends impacted by the flooding. I’ll spend 20-30 minutes talking about how we can talk with our kids and help them process their grief. As families and as communities. And then, I’ll give you an opportunity to ask questions. You can join either time…or both, if you’d like. The sign up is at the link in my bio. It’s a free seminar. All are welcome. In the meantime, just know that we’re standing alongside you. Praying. Grieving. And still hoping.

10am sign up: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_zwuF9XU9T1yig8GI4-oVTQ #/registration

4:30pm sign up: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_0MQggThyQgyU7s4d9VQGiA #/registration
