I am an 8th grader and a member of the local Boy Scouts and the Fallbrook swim team, and I am writing about an experience awhile ago at Live Oak Park, just down the street from my house.

I think he should be more flexible with the rules. A park is for the people of Fallbrook to enjoy and to have fun, if it does not cause trouble. I did not...
