Wynne had been on the waiting list for Camp Mystic since she was an infant. This summer was her first year to attend.

She was a vivacious 8-year-old who joined her dad on fishing and hunting trips, but also loved dressing up, participating in ballet and wearing her Lake Highlands cheerleading outfit for high school football games.
