About A-Day
A-Day brings the campus community and our neighbors throughout Bucks County and the region together for
educational exhibits, entertainment, great food, activities for kids and fun for all! The first A-Day was held May
21, 1949 on the campus of the National Agricultural College. At that time, A-Day was a single day when the
students of the college worked together to showcase various agricultural displays and exhibits.

Today the tradition continues with the hard work and dedication of the students of Delaware Valley University.
The entire event is planned and implemented by the students with minimal guidance from the university’s staff,
faculty, and administration. Student-run exhibits and demonstrations involve a variety of majors from the
University and reflect experiential learning.

Additionally, since 2004 A-Day has been part of the Pennsylvania State Association of County Fairs. Members
of the university and local community are invited to enter their food items, artwork, or handicrafts for judging in
the fair. Come and listen to great entertainment while making memories that will last a lifetime!

As part of the A-Day tradition, agriculture industry leaders, Lancaster Farming, the leading Northeast and
Mid-Atlantic farm newspaper; Hoober International, an agricultural equipment dealer with nine locations
in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and Virginia; and The Steinman Foundation, one of the largest
charitable organizations in Lancaster County, will award scholarships to deserving DelVal students.

These scholarships provide financial assistance to students studying agriculture and environmental sciences.
They represent the mutual passion and commitment shared by these industry leaders to higher education and
to strengthening the agriculture industry. With this scholarship support, DelVal students will continue
studying modern agricultural practices while developing critical thinking skills that enable them to
confidently step into careers in this growing and vital industry.
The A Day Endowed Scholarship was established in 1991 by the A-Day student leadership committee under
the guidance of Joseph Fulcoly, Jr. Associate Dean of Student Services and Director of Counseling at
DelVal. Proceeds from A-Day 1991 were dedicated to this endowed fund established to financially assist
student leaders of A-Day. This competitive scholarship is awarded each year to qualified A-Day student
leaders.
