The Ministry contacted us to announce recruitment for individuals looking to stop the Irvingly-Hogsmeade fog. There will be a significant monetary reward for anyone whose assigned group successfully halts the fog expansion, (presumably funded by the money the Ministry is saving on salary while on partial capacity.) Participants will take the train into Irvingly, be assigned to locations in their groups, and presumably attempt to find the source of the magic afflicting the area.

Interested parties should contact the Ministry of Magic with their name and the details of their wand via owl or in person by July 2nd, 1888. Participants must be:
- At least seventeen years of age
- Magic users, and thus fully or part-human
- Without outstanding warrants

When asked why these requirements are so length, a representative from the Department of Magical Accidents & Catastrophes said, "Who am I to stop the laxly employed from making a fruitless attempt?" which was, perhaps, validly disdainful of some potential participants.

Participants will also be asked to sign a waiver before they board the train, in light of any potential risk.
