			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On behalf of everyone at Avistrum Academy of Sorcery, I would like to apologize profusely for <a href="http://avistrum.org/wp-content/persephone/">the message</a> many of you encountered when you visited the website in the last 36 hours.  We are still not sure how Persephone managed to seize control of the site, but please rest assured that we are investigating the matter thoroughly.  We have re-established control of the website, and we promise no more disruptions of this kind in the future.</p>
<p>We know that Persephone&#8217;s letter may have scared some of you, causing you to question whether you wish to return to Avistrum for the <a href="http://avistrum.org/pensieve/2007/07/26/tales-from-avistrum-kings-and-pawns/">Fall Term</a>.  Please rest assured that we are taking every precaution to guarantee your safety.  As a gesture of thanks for your continued patience, and to help convince you to re-join us this year, we are going to honor the tuition discount (distastefully named though it may be) that Persephone hacked into the registration page.  You can redeem the discount at <a href="http://talesfromavistrum.eventbrite.com/">http://talesfromavistrum.eventbrite.com/</a> with the discount code &#8220;NEWORDER&#8221; from now until October 15.</p>
<p>Thanks again for your patience and courage.</p>

The show will run October 26-28, 2007, at the Hyatt Regency in the Denver Tech Center.</p>
<p>Have you ever wanted to be a student at a school of magic Harry Potter? Avistrum Academy of Sorcery is the premier American school of witchcraft and wizardry. Our once-a-year event is the only weekend of its kind anywhere!</p>
<p><span id="more-85"></span></p>
<p>Students will participate in 6 classes, including Defense Against the Dark Arts, Charms, Muggle Studies, Practical Magics, and more. New students will be sorted by the Great Eagle of Avistrum on Friday evening, and join their classmates and the faculty for a dessert feast. Classes begin Saturday and continue through Sunday. Play to represent your house in the Quidditch Cup. Saturday evening, the school is transformed for the Dark Wizard&#8217;s Ball. At each event, you can earn (or lose) points for your house, and help to win the House Cup!</p>
<p>Like Hogwarts, Avistrum faces constant threat. The dark witch Persephone, an unrivaled metamorphmagus, continues to try to infiltrate and take control of the school for her nefarious purposes. The Council of the Wise is contemplating making it illegal to teach Transfiguration to try to stop her. Hemmed in from all sides, Headmaster Clark Dowling and the brave faculty must attempt a desperate gambit to stop Persephone. They need your help!</p>
<p>Admission includes a full-weekend membership to MileHiCon 39. Children 11 and under must be accompanied at all times by a paid adult. Children 16 and under must have a parent present at MileHiCon.</p>
