Here's What's Needed For This Year's Mission Backpack

You've heard the Cat crew talking about it all week. We're calling it Mission Backpack 2019.

Year after year, so many students return to school unprepared as a result of the rising cost of expensive school supplies. So, this year, we're committed to helping all Atlantic County students head back to school with everything they need to put them on a track to a successful year.

Cat Country will be at the ShopRite in Somers Point on Saturday, August 23rd collecting items for the kids.

If you're wondering what's needed, we've got you covered. Check it out -
