Deer day is an unofficial holiday held on the first day of the hunting season in many rural areas of the United States in which school districts are often closed.[1]
From 1963 to 2019, the first day of the deer hunting season with firearms in Pennsylvania has been the Monday after Thanksgiving, which has developed into a tradition.[2] In April 2019, the Pennsylvania Board of Game Commissioners moved the opening day of firearms deer season to the Saturday after Thanksgiving, at the request of the majority of hunters; this move provided big game hunters, especially families, more opportunities to pursue their passion.[2]
Maine holds "Youth Deer Day" in which hunters "who hold a valid junior hunting license have their own days for deer, bear, turkey and waterfowl" before the start of full deer hunting season.[3]
