     ASPxNavBar1.Groups.Add(group1);
     group1.Items.Add(item1);

     group1.HeaderTemplate = new MyTemplate();
     group1.HeaderTemplateCollapsed = new MyTemplate1();

}

public class MyTemplate : ITemplate {
     void ITemplate.InstantiateIn(Control container) {
          Label label = new Label();
          label.Text = "The group is expanded";
          container.Controls.Add(label);
     }
