Lakewood contracts with the Lakewood Clinic PA to provide clinic medical services for Lakewood upon the terms and conditions outlined in the MSA. The Lakewood Clinic PA will also render such other advisory services in connection with the medical services of Lakewood as may be requested from time to time by the officers or directors of the Lakewood administration and/or board.

Welcome to Staples

The historic, quaint town of Staples is located in north central Minnesota (Todd and Wadena counties) and has a population of approximately 3,000 people. Its neighbor, Motley, is just a few miles away and has another 1,000 people. The two towns collaborate on many community-wide initiatives, including the local school system. Staples boasts many attractive storefronts and businesses in the downtown area, giving it a ‘Main Street USA’ feel.

Staples is proud of its rich history and accomplishments in the areas of business, education, healthcare, athletics and cultural activities. Community involvement, passion, and loyalty is alive and well in Staples — from the town rallying around local sports teams, to attending concerts and other fine arts-related events, to supporting local philanthropic efforts, to cultural activities representing the strong Scandinavian and Finnish ancestries in the area.

Other Staples attractions include Central Lakes Community College; a historic brick train station built in 1909; a municipal airport; a weekly newspaper — Staples World; The Vintage Golf Club; an eclectic mix of restaurants and coffee shops; and a variety of retail stores to meet just about anyone’s shopping or gift-giving needs.
