Joe Ellis, a hard working promoter with a goal in mind; Joe has built from a dream, an event that is a progressive and friendly event for all. The event venue is top notch, the hospitality is friendly, and awards are plentiful and nice. Joe tries very hard to accommodate every competitor in any way possible. In beautiful San Diego Joe has brought to the community an event to brag about. In his second year he has more than doubled the AKA American Open in numbers and excitement. Working with the Padres and other entertainment venues in the area there is plenty for visitors to enjoy over the Labor Day weekend. Joe and the AKA American Open are well on their way to a World Class event. Congratulations go out to Joe and his staff for a great job.
