About Carrot & Stick
Carrot & Stick Horse Shows is proud to be returning as the host of an Ontario Equestrian Skills Development (O.E.S.D.) Horse Show Series at the Essa Agriplex in 2024.
O.E.S.D. shows are sanctioned horse shows intended for up-and-coming riders and horses. The show facility features modern fibre footing, safe well-ventilated stabling, Equestrian Canada approved classes, course designers and judges all at a welcoming agricultural facility.
MISSION
Our mission is to host the best possible shows and as we enter our sixth season, we are excited to include a specialty event, themed shows and the return of our year-end banquet. We seek to close the gap between schooling shows and EC rated Silver and Gold competitions in Ontario.
