So far, there have been 3 EPE "Ultimate" preliminaries, leading to the semi-finals in Memphis in August.
Winners to date include:
Joseph Hall - USA
Garry Wesley - USA
and from this past weekend's contest, Gino Monopoli - Canada
Carol
As another update, I've been speaking with a few of the EPE preliminary contest organizers and there is an interesting array of contestants entering some of these preliminaries...so it will be another "interesting year" to watch as the final contest in August takes place.
