If I understand your post correctly , the local public park has an AMA chartered club operating there , and you aren't a member of that club or the AMA , and you fly there ? I'd be curious what agreement the club has with the city/town administrators , if the town actually does allow people unaffiliated with the club to fly there , since the AMA member has automatic proof of insurance by the membership they hold and someone unaffiliated may or may not have insurance ?

PS , If you aren't a club member and your flying there , I'll bet your REAL popular with the club members , eh ?
