You need to create an event source and a message file for it. Code looks something like this:

var data = new EventSourceCreationData("yourApp", "Application");
data.MessageResourceFile = pathToYourMessageFile;
EventLog.CreateEventSource(data);

Then you will need to create a message file. There is also this article that explains things (I did not read it all but it seems fairly complete).
