RED WING Marching up Finrud Avenue and back, Cathy and Ron Goggin had a lot of conversations, fielded a bunch of questions, and collected enough signatures to call it a good day. Cathy and I got 18 for Dean (Hove), 19 for Laurel (Stinson) and six for Kim (Beise), said Ron Goggin, after adding up the night s haul of signatures from Finrud Avenue and Hickory Street as well as a few other spots in their Ward 1 neighborhood. I talked to two other volunteers that had just done Fern Avenue. They had 16 for Dean and Laurel. I don t know how many they had for Kim.
