I just received my switch box and was wondering two things. First how do I set up one switch to turn all my lights on and the second after running the power wire for my lights to the switch box where do I run the ground wires to. Thanks

A chassis ground point! As long as your ground point is a decent connection point.
As for what switch to turn on all the lights, umm that doesn't appear to be a option based on what I just read.. you would need a slide switch without further wiring...

You could always use a relay on switch number 1 so you can run multiple light to a max of 30 amp.
