A go-bag is a short-term solution to suddenly having to bug out.
So, you should have it set for the weather you will experience and it should be able to carry you, if needed, for up to a week.

Not a Go bag item but make sure your vehicle is road ready and filled with gasoline.

Since you will be taking your bag to a shelter and not to the Yukon to live off the land, keep that in mind.

Take your battery pack and cord for your phone, maybe a thin cheap fleece sleeping bag and a fleece throw, a flashlight and headlamp for reading and a couple of books or cards or magnetic chess board, whatever suits you.

You will be fed, but take some snacks and something to eat anyway for the munchies and in case there are supply problems, socks, underwear and some hand washable clothes, ear plugs and a sleep mask, whatever is the modern version of a transistor radio and music.

Chapstick and Rolaids and your vitamins or medicine, the hotel stuff of soap and toothpaste and for shaving, a comb, a small towel, toilet paper, personal cleaning wipes, extra reading glasses, a drinking cup and spoon, back up shoes, sugar and salt if that suits you, a multi-tool.

Think about hanging around and being bored, being tired, wanting a snack, wanting to call people, wanting to sleep, wanting to cleanup and get fresh.

Awareness - A Bug Out Bag for any catastrophe

Blueplum (c/o CBS News) : ”One of the most important parts of an emergency action plan is a go bag filled with everything you need in case of an evacuation...

Firefighters created a phonetic list, dubbed the "6 P's of Evacuation,"(Emphasis Mine) to remember everything that should go with you and your emergency kit:
People, pets and papers; phone numbers & important documents; Prescriptions, vitamins & eyeglasses; Pictures & irreplaceable memorabilia;
Personal computer, hard drive & disks; "Plastic" (credit cards, ATM cards) & cash."

The ONE thing you definitely need for the apocalypse is to have TWO Kawasaki KLX230 dual-sport dirtbikes or similar waiting in the garage or close by.
When the roads are clogged and gas is sparse you need those two four-strokes to get out of town FAST.
Oh yea, and couple of 10mm semi-auto pistols for support...

I’d recommend more like a month’s worth of prescription meds if necessary.

Just keep them updated by checking the bag regularly.

Personal computer, hard drive & disks

 

What? Was this list made 25 years ago? We now have laptops and data on the cloud.

A can opener, or at least what my unit called a John Wayne; a small can opener. The NFP I work for provides a mobile food pantry, and had canned goods for distribution after a local apartment building fire. Unfortunately, all of the cans required a can opener, so we could not pass out the food.

Have a place to go. Friends, family, a workplace, campground. And prep there so all you need in your bag is enough to get you to that place.
