The Connerton community in Land O’ Lakes drew a large crowd to its old-fashioned neighborhood party celebrating Independence Day. The June 29 event, free and open to the public, featured games, bounce houses, a rock-climbing wall, live music, a live DJ, numerous food trucks and local crafters. Thunderstorms and heavy rain rolled through the area midway through the evening’s festivities, but cleared up just in time for the spectacular fireworks display at 9 p.m.
