Summary
Thursday’s flood tore through CeCe Jean Saunders’ Kerrville dance and cheer studio, ripping away a prop shed, inundating the building and pushing water under a newly replaced cheer floor.
2 years after the studio’s first flood in 40 years, Saunders was rebuilding again; last year’s repairs cost about $100,000.
Friday, volunteers shoveled mud and debris from the little blue building on the Guadalupe River as rains began easing across the battered Texas Hill Country.
The repeat damage underscores how quickly what seemed a once-in-a-lifetime disaster has become a recurring threat for riverfront businesses in Kerrville.
