The Alice Mayo Society- a spouse support group

​The Alice Mayo Society serves the spouses of designated staff members at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. The group provides a community that facilitates social interaction and promotes a sense of connection.
​
Beginning in 1911, the Magazine Club began meeting as a way for Mayo Clinic doctors' spouses to socialize and support each other. In 1968, the name changed to The Alice Mayo Society (AMS) in honor of the wife of Dr. Charles W. Mayo, son of Dr. Charles H. Mayo, who was known for her hospitality and welcoming spirit.

Membership

Spouses of consultants, voting administrative staff, senior associate consultants, associate consultants, and Mayo Clinic Scholars in Rochester, Minnesota are automatically considered active members of The Alice Mayo Society. Honorary members are spouses of emeritus staff.

There are no mandatory dues for membership. However, voluntary annual dues of $35 are accepted to help fund the activities and operating expenses of the group. More information regarding dues is available under our Dues tab.
​
The Alice Mayo Society hosts a variety of events and activities groups for our members. We also sponsor the Mayo Families' Connection, which provides opportunities for socializing and camaraderie for spouses and significant others of residents, fellows, and medical and graduate students. ​
