The event at the church, 825 North Belair Road, Evans, will offer outdoor activities, Christian bands and fellowship opportunities for teens.

"We open our church to the community to give teens a chance to meet with other teens who are a part of the church and who are not," said youth director Curtis Gibbs.

The main event begins Friday with a concert from Christian singer Shawn McDonald, of Seattle. Trent Monk, of the group Monk and Neagle, also will perform.

Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. and the concert will start at 7 p.m.

"There is a $5 suggested fee, or you can come out and just have fun," Gibbs said.

A cookout will be held Saturday from noon until 3 p.m. with games and inflatables. Participants should wear a modest swimsuit.

Guest bands and speakers will perform 7-9 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, and during contemporary worship services at 9:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. Sunday.
