"Robin Goodfellow"-A New Business Adventure in Duluth

By Russ Stewart

In May, I'll be joining the Duluth business community by opening my own store in Duluth's Old Downtown. Named after the sprightly trickster in Shakespeare's play "A Midsummer Night's Dream," Robin Goodfellow will be a store that rivals the play for good-spirited mischief. The store will stock books, games, and comics.

The main surprise for most people seems to be that I'm starting a business at all. After having been labeled "anti-business," I'm sure my current plans have some people wondering. The answer is simply this: Business and progressive politics need not be at odds. That is one message that I have been working to get across during my first two years on the Duluth City Council.

Look for Robin Goodfellow this spring at 23 South Lake Avenue. And if you have any friendly advice for a new businessman, please let me know!
