PAST: MACC began in the mid-1940s, with the consolidation of three business areas: Centerville, West McHenry, and Old Town. The new organization was called the McHenry Businessmen's Association. On April 24, 1952, The McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce was incorporated.

PRESENT: Today the Chamber has grown to 640 members serving not only the business community, but also the community at large. With the help of talented Chamber members, MACC is now a community event powerhouse, and draws many people into the area.

FUTURE: As the community grows, MACC will continue to evolve with the needs of its expanding area. In the future, the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce will join with the city and community groups to develop relationships and create programs for the benefit of all.
