Chemung Township is in the beautiful northwest area of McHenry County. It is home to the City of Harvard, Harmilda, Metra, rural communities of Big Foot, Lawrence, and Chemung plus the plentiful cropland in between. Please check out what your township officials are doing for you, the citizens, who work and live within its boundaries.
