MCC's own 30-minute documentary featuring local history, anecdotes, stories and archived footage and photos of students, staff and community members celebrating the first half-century of McHenry County College.

"We invite area residents to come see how MCC was formed, transformed, changed - and changed lives over the last 50 years," said MCC film instructor Jim Stockwell, who directed the documentary.

The event is free and open to the public. Donations of individually-wrapped snacks for the MCC Student Veterans Resource Center will be accepted.
