Country in the Park drew crowds to the England Brothers Bandshell in Pinellas Park on Saturday, with 12 hours of country music, amusement park rides, a petting zoo, pony and horse rides, NASCAR displays, crafts and food. It attracts about 15,000 people each year. As usual, the Chili Blaze the night before set the mood. The city's firefighters are behind the cooking contest. Fourteen local charities benefited from the events.
