For the first Hogsmeade visit of the school year, there were still smatterings of the Autumnal festival left for the students to find, including some stray decorations and a corn maze. All businesses were open and welcoming, with The Indulgent Tart offering free tastings, Honeydukes putting out limited samples of new products, and Bats & Bludgers offering signed photos of top-tier players free with purchases until supplies ran out.
There was a notable difference from past Hogsmeade weekends in that there was a visible Auror and Hitwizard presence. They were dressed in plainclothes and attempting to be casual, but it was obvious to those who looked and recognized them that they were patroling, and had a man stationed by all floo entrances. Also of note was the fact that the post office was closed for visitors, and anyone wishing to send an owl was told to leave their parcel in a locked box outside the office, which also had an Auror or Hitwizard stationed nearby. Zonko's shop remains closed with a small sign in the window that reads "Soon To Be Under New Management."
