What do you keep in your aid kit?

Don't forget moleskin.  It's a lifesaver when ill-fitting boots/shoes cause blisters!  Otherwise, we keep pretty much what everyone else has listed.  I normally make sure that we have aspirin, Tylenol, Advil AND Aleve in there so people can take their preferred painkiller.  The Neosporin spray is good because then you don't risk cross-contamination.

Also, I put the single-use saline eyedrops in there for when folks get dust in their eyes or have dry eyes or whatever.  The single use again helps to avoid cross contamination.

Non medical items also include:

safety pins
needles and thread
scissors
black sharpies
extra grommets and a hand held grommet hole punch
extra laces
listerine strips
emery boards
nail clippers
hand sanitizer (again, I like the individual wipes, but even a small bottle will do)
a small notepad with a pen

Hope this helps.
