Our Board of Directors

Join our board, and help us make history!

The McHenry County Historical Society & Museum seeks 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.
