The Black Bear Experience will provide the youth of Maine an opportunity to be coached by the Maine coaching staff and current Black Bear players. The experience is for youths 6 years old through 8th grade, and participants will work on drills and fundamentals in a fun setting following the final Maine Football spring scrimmage of the season. Following the scrimmage the coaches and players will divide the group into stations and rotate through until each participant has taken part in each station. Following the four stations participants will have the chance to take photos with the Maine coaches and players and obtain autographs from the team. All participants will also be given a FREE ticket to attend the Maine baseball double-header against Vermont at Mahaney Diamond beginning at noon on the 30th.

The 2005 Black Bear Youth Experience is a part of the Bears of Tomorrow program in conjunction with Hannaford Supermarket
