(IT SHOULD BE A GOOD SEASON FOR DOVE HUNTERS)….THE FIRST PART OF THE DOVE SEASON IN IMPERIAL COUNTY BEGINS LABOR DAY WEEKEND. HUNTERS ARE FLOCKING TO THE VALLEY FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. GAME WARDENS SAY THERE IS AN ABUNDANCE OF ELIGIBLE BIRDS THRU-OUT THE COUNTY. MOST OF THE MOTELS AND HOTELS IN THE COUNTY ARE BOOKED, WITH HUNTERS ARRIVING BY FRIDAY TO BEGIN THE SEASON THIS WEEKEND. DOVE HUNTERS NORMALLY GET SPECIAL TREATMENT, BUT THIS YEAR THERE WILL BE SOMETHING EXTRA. PARADISE CASINO IS HOSTING THE ARIZONA FINALS OF THE MISS HAWAIIAN TROPIC BEAUTY PAGAENT ON SATURDAY. THE PAGAENT IS AT 7 IN THE EVENING, BUT BETWEEN 2:30 AND 6 THAT DAY DOVE HUNTERS WILL BE ALLOWED TO PARTICIPATE IN A PHOTO SHOOT WITH THE CONTESTANTS AND OTHER ACTIVITIES. FISH AND GAME SAYS HUNTERS SHOULD NOT HAVE A PROBLEM MEETING THE LEGAL LIMIT, BUT THEY ARE ASKING HUNTERS TO RESPECT LOCAL PROPERTY, AND TO PICK-UP AFTER THEMSELVES WHEN THEY ARE FINISHED WITH THEIR MORNING SHOOT.
