MCHS Board Members

You are here

Join our board, and help us make history!

The McHenry County Historical Society & Museum is seeking historically minded individuals interested in shaping the future direction of the society by serving as board members. A commitment to our mission – to engage and educate current and future generations by preserving and sharing McHenry County history – is key.

Serving on the board or volunteering on a committee should be a good fit if you have …

-  a passion for history in your life (travels, reading, interests)

-  your own collection(s)

-  experience serving on other boards

-   attended activities and events sponsored by the Society

-   volunteered at the Society

-   taught school, given a presentation, or otherwise conveyed information to a group

-   participated in any advocacy project (social, government, political, religious)

-   contributed financially, other than your membership, to the Society in the past

-   ideas, talents, expertise you wish to share in order to convey history and enrich lives

-   four to eight hours a month to devote to board activities

Everyone brings their own valuable skill set to the table, however MCHS is especially looking for folks with a background in finance or the building trades – as well as a dedicated public servant from the county’s growing Latinx community. Prospective candidates must live or work in McHenry County.

If you would like to learn more or know of a person you believe would embrace this important role, contact the society using email: info@mchenrycountyhistory.org. New three-year terms begin July 1. The museum is located at 6422 Main Street in Union, Illinois.
