She is also thinking about starting a day camp with four or five good school ,/ horses and is seriously planning to have an outdoor jumping course built by next year. In a nutshell, Terry wants Nor- thwood to have a little bit of everything for the equestrian en- thusiast, including a_hunter ring, field hunting, field eventing and en- durance riding. She is even con- sidering getting involved with small school-shows for her students to compete in. If anyone can pull all this together, it has got to be Terry Pereira. She's been riding English- style for 15 years and has become known as a trained eye for serious horse buyers. Terry is the woman people call when they need a horse and she has become so proficient at her job that she has found and arranged sales for Olympic riders. "It started out as a little part-time job and grew into a full-time job," she says with a grin. "I'm like a real estate agency, really." Originally from Sunderland, Terry and her neighbour formed the Durham Pony Club years ago, a club that has continued to grow. It was this club that fostered her in- terest in children, horses and her dream -- forming a stables/school complex like the one she is building at Northwood. . For more information about Nor- thwood, call Terry at 985-8359. Northwood stables owner Terry Pereira, with her wee daughter, nestles up to one of the many horses at her farm near Seagrave.
