This year as always there will be backpacks at both the Northern State Bank and the Superior Choice Credit Union. The backpacks for grades Pre-K thru 5th grade will be marked and a list available as to what items are needed in each of them. If you purchase any items, place them in the appropriate backpack. Monetary donations are also accepted. Collected money will be used to purchase whatever is needed to finish filling the backpacks. For more information about “Pack the Backpacks”, check our Community Organizations page.

This collection is sponsored by Rich and Carol Becker of Mellen who have been packing the backpacks since 2009!
