Callum Park riding centre

Medway Park will host the 2010 Modern Pentathlon World Cup and is one of only nine venues throughout the United Kingdom to have been officially approved as a pre-Games training camp venue for the sport. To provide modern pentathlon countries with the best possible training conditions, Medway has teamed up with the nearby Callum Park equestrian centre. |

Callum Park (www.callumpark.com) provides riding tuition to thousands of beginner and experienced riders in and around Medway and now hopes to expand its current facilities in light of this venture. “We are delighted that Medway chose us as their partner” said John McGee, managing director of Callum Park. “We have been quietly developing our facilities and expertise for many years and this is now a justification of all the hard work and investment to date." |
"Our goal is to become a centre of excellence for equestrian activities in the south-east and this partnership can only help that cause”.
