Established on December 28, 1892, Skandia Township is a rural community located on the east central border of Marquette County. The township has a population of 810, consisting of 72.01 square miles.

The Skandia Township Hall and pavilion, located at 224 Kreiger Drive in Skandia, was built in 1978. It currently houses the United States Post Office, and the office of the Supervisor, Clerk, Treasurer, Assessor, Zoning Administrator, and the Water Authority. Meetings of the Township Board, Zoning Board of Appeals and the Planning Commission are held here, as well as all elections.

Together with West Branch Township, we provide Emergency Medical Services consisting of a Fire Department and a First Responders unit. We also provide our community with a Transfer Station for household waste. Meetings for these joint endeavors with West Branch Township are posted on the outside sign at Skandia Township.
