Details of Our Group going to CreationFest 2011 Our Group is called The Bereans. We are various Christians from a few states, including Maryland, USA. Our mission is to encourage, edify, and enjoy each other in our relationship with the living God. We choose to have fun with each other, appreciate each other's gifts, and rejoice in our Creator! While at CreationFest, each person's time is their own. They can come and go as they please, seeing shows, taking hikes, enjoying fellowship, praying, etc. We enjoy eating meals together, but it is not a requirement. CreationFest 2011 is from June 29 - July 3, 2011, Wednesday to Sunday. Buy your tickets early since they are cheaper the sooner you buy them. You can buy our discounted tickets. (Our price is cheaper since we buy them early and in bulk.) $95 covers our camp site with a private porta-potty, all the concerts (http://www.creationfest.com/ne/lineup), shows, teachings, hiking, songs around the campfire, billions of nighttime stars viewed on this 300+ acre farm, and a priceless time growing with God. You can compare prices with CreationFest at http://www.creationfest.com/ne/tickets . Volunteering makes it even cheaper. (http://www.creationfest.com/staff ) Join our group early, invite people you'd like to join you or who you think would be blessed by such an awesome event. Notify your employer, family and friends, and reserve your space!! - We look forward to hearing from you soon.
Cost of Going Tickets this year are $95 per person with our group discount. Buying tickets at CreationFest can be as high at $115.00 which does not include a private potty. Our tickets include a good spot for camping and admission to all of the live concerts, speakers, and activities for the full time of CreationFest.

Hot Showers - You can buy your ticket, $15, for a week of hot showers at http://www.creationfest.com/ne/tickets . Food - Each member is responsible for their own meals. Here are the options: Several families voluntarily make dinner for everyone. (Of course there is no charge.) Others prepare their own meals. Most bring homemade or store bought food to share. Generally, we gather together for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but this is Never a requirement. Most meals are good home cooking served buffet style. There are food vendors on site. Most people bring their own cooler. A few bring a stove to prepare meals. Be sure to bring all the snacks you want. We supply - Marshmallows and skewers for roasting on the open fire during our stay AND the Private Porta-Potty only for our group AND the Water and Lemonade Coolers. We all must follow CreationFest's rules and dress code. Camaraderie is free of charge, however, it is very Valuable!! Bring your guitar or other musical instruments, your voice, your tambourine, your humor, your insight, your problems, your joy, your heart, your self!!! We'll have a great and valuable time! I always thank God for you because of His grace given you in Christ Jesus. 1 Corinthians 1:4
