First celebrated in 1986, '''Bowman Day''' is an unofficial holiday for many in the American metahuman community that celebrates their being given official legal status, and recognized by the American Government. It is celebrated on July 8 (or the closest Saturday in July on the calendar tofollowing that date). It is one of three recognized metahuman-specific holidays observed by [[United States Academy of Extranormal Studies|USAES]] cadets and faculty; this includes [[Ostrich Day]] (observed on the Thursday of the last full week before Halloween), and [[Heroes Day]] (observed in early November, and may become a Federal holiday).
 
Many metahumans gather in New York (particularly Harlem and Coney Island) and Los Angeles area for celebrations on Bowman Day, which is named for Senator James Bowman, who wrote the Bowman Acts. Many of the communities that celebrate Bowman Day have developed their own quirky traditions for celebrating the day.
