Captain Picard Day is celebrated on June 16th because it is the equivalent date to Stardate 47457.1, mentioned in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode entitled The Pegasus. In that episode, Captain Picard Day is an occasion for the Enterprise to host schoolchildren and show them what Starfleet is like. [geeksaresexy.net]
The Stardate 47457.1 is generally agreed by most Star Trek scholars to correspond to the old Terran Gregorian calendar date of June 16.
