Creation 2012 is just around the corner! Signups are already up and you MUST go this year.

Creation is the largest Christian music festival. Creation offers jam packed days filled with the top musical artists, kids’ activities, worship tent and more. However, the Creation Festival is about much more than music. Creation is also about honoring the Word of God through our speakers and seminars.

You can go to Creation’s website to see a list of Artists that will be there (www.creationfest.com/ne/artists.php)

You can look at Creation’s Website for more details about what happens at Creation (www.creationfest.com/ne/). Creation has two stages were most of the music and speakers perform. The smaller stage, smaller bands play throughout the day. The larger bands play at the Main Stage and we have a group tarp that our entire group can stay together for the main performers. The music and speakers usually play all day until 12:00 AM.

Here is another Creation page that gives very specific details about everything Creation (http://www.creationfest.com/ne/details.php)

We setup a camp site in which we sleep groups of guys and groups of girls (separated) in tents at about 6-8 a tent. We have adults that sleep in the tents with the younger (Wildfire) students or in a tent beside them. The camp is usually split into a guy area and a girl area so a tent of guys isn’t next to a tent of girls. The sleeping arrangements are very closely monitored by the adult leaders for Wildfire. Adults arrange their own sleeping arrangements with Jonah (Youth Pastor). Showers are available at the campsite or at public showers that Creation offers.

Sign up here!!

Any questions please talk with someone at the information center (at Pleasant View Church) or talk to e-mail Jonah McWilliams at JonahAndKristen@verizon.net. Anyone signing up must inform us of grade/age and also give payment before tickets are bought.

PRICES:
– Adults – $135.00
