Mayo Prepares for Capitol Christmas Tree

Troupe of Children Help Mayo Clinic Plant and Decorate Holiday Tree

The Mayo Clinic helped spruce up the Gonda Building today as they, along with a few children, hosted a tree planting in preparation for the coming of the Capitol Christmas Tree (CCT) to Rochester.

This is the The Capitol Christmas Tree's 50th anniversary, which coincides nicely with Mayo Clinic's 150 years serving humanity. The CCT will be stopping in Downtown Rochester, Peace Plaza on Nov. 7 where the Mayo Clinic in collaboration with the Rochester Downtown Alliance (RDA) have activities and other holiday programing planned for the national event.
