The slogan for Creation 2012 Northeast is "The highlight of your summer... maybe your life!"

"It is so much fun to see people arrive at Creation! Some arrive ready to sleep under the stars; others come with their tent or their RV. Lots of the groups come 'loaded for bear!' Some the sites are amazing with big tents for cooking, showers, stoves and wood for the campfire. People come to praise the Lord from all over the Northeast and even across the globe," states the official Creation 2012 website.

"Through the years we have seen over and over that Creation is far more than bands and camping. Creation is an opportunity for God to do a work your heart and life. Creation is a great place to allow God's Holy Spirit to renew and release and focus you on following and being a disciple of Christ."

Musicians performing at the event include Chris Tomlin, Kutless, Planet Shakers, Switchfoot, Thousand Foot Krutch, Tenth Avenue North and Newsboys, among dozens of others.

Reggie Dabbs, Tony Nolan, Brian "Head" Welch and Anne Beller, are among the guest speakers.

The 34th annual event is split into two venues, and the other half will take place from July 18 till 21 at Enumclau Expo Center in Enumclaw, Wa.
