Seller financing is one of the most common ways small business transactions are completed, allowing buyers and sellers to structure deals directly with each other. In this course, participants will learn how seller-financed acquisitions work from start to finish. From preparing for a deal and identifying potential opportunities to structuring terms, writing a letter of intent, and conducting due diligence. The session will also cover negotiating agreements, closing the transaction, and managing the critical first 90 days after ownership changes hands. This class is ideal for entrepreneurs interested in acquiring a business, owners considering selling their company, or advisors who want to better understand how bank-free business transactions are structured and completed.&lt;/p&gt;

Two pairs of feuding brothers set the story in motion. Rosalind, banished by her uncle, disguises herself as a man and escapes to the Forest of Arden with her cousin Celia. Orlando flees his own brother&amp;#39;s murderous schemes and ends up there too. In the forest, identities shift, romance blooms in unexpected ways, and everyone finds their way home.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

That collaboration between emerging and experienced artists is central to everything the company does.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Schmidt, who believed theatre should be free and available to everyone. After Dan&amp;#39;s passing, his students and colleagues carried his vision forward. This June marks the company&amp;#39;s sixth production since then. The show is funded through a suggested donation model and an annual GoFundMe so that admission never has to be charged.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Two pairs of feuding brothers set the story in motion. Rosalind, banished by her uncle, disguises herself as a man and escapes to the Forest of Arden with her cousin Celia. Orlando flees his own brother&amp;#39;s murderous schemes and ends up there too. In the forest, identities shift, romance blooms in unexpected ways, and everyone finds their way home.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height:1.38; margin-top:16px; margin-bottom:16px"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11pt; font-variant:normal; white-space:pre-wrap"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:normal"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration:none"&gt;Courtyard Shakespeare is an educational theatre company, bringing together high school students, college students, and professional Kansas City actors to create work side by side. That collaboration between emerging and experienced artists is central to everything the company does.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height:1.38; margin-top:16px; margin-bottom:16px"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11pt; font-variant:normal; white-space:pre-wrap"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:normal"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration:none"&gt;Founded in 2018 by drama teacher Dan C. Schmidt, who believed theatre should be free and available to everyone. After Dan&amp;#39;s passing, his students and colleagues carried his vision forward. This June marks the company&amp;#39;s sixth production since then. The show is funded through a suggested donation model and an annual GoFundMe so that admission never has to be charged.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Two pairs of feuding brothers set the story in motion. Rosalind, banished by her uncle, disguises herself as a man and escapes to the Forest of Arden with her cousin Celia. Orlando flees his own brother&amp;#39;s murderous schemes and ends up there too. In the forest, identities shift, romance blooms in unexpected ways, and everyone finds their way home.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Schmidt, who believed theatre should be free and available to everyone. After Dan&amp;#39;s passing, his students and colleagues carried his vision forward. This June marks the company&amp;#39;s sixth production since then. The show is funded through a suggested donation model and an annual GoFundMe so that admission never has to be charged.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum can be beautiful moments in time &amp;mdash; but they can also bring unexpected emotional challenges. Many pregnant and postpartum women experience anxiety, sadness, overwhelm, or intrusive thoughts which can be scary. Finding support and learning to recognize these common challenges can make such a meaningful difference.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this class, you will learn:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;What Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs) are and why these emotional changes during pregnancy and postpartum are common.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Signs and symptoms of PMADs.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Practical tools and coping strategies you can use to help yourself or a loved one throughout pregnancy and the first year postpartum.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;When to seek help and how to find support for yourself or someone you love&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This class is open to all pregnant women, postpartum mothers, significant others, and family members.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Advent Health is here to be part of your village. Because no one should have to navigate this season alone.&lt;/p&gt;

Visitors will be greeted with beautiful gardens of blooming native plants filled with busy pollinators.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Wonders of Discovery is a free event for all ages hosted annually by the Johnson County Extension Master Naturalists. There will be exhibits on birds of prey, the importance of pollinators and native plants, simple things you can do at home to support nature, soil conservation, and much more. Games and activities are planned for children, so this will be a fun and educational event for the whole family.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Did you know that pollinators are responsible for one out of every three bites of food you eat? Most flowering plants need help with pollination to produce seeds and fruit. Pollinators provide the essential service of transferring pollen from plant to plant to fertilize flowers so they can grow into the wide variety of fruits, nuts and seeds that we enjoy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;People need pollinators, but have you considered that pollinators need people too? There is so much to discover about these fascinating creatures and our important connection with them.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Attending &amp;ldquo;Wonders of Discovery&amp;rdquo; will help you gain a greater appreciation for pollinators and the native plants that support them at the Pollinator Prairie, a prime example of habitat gardens. The Pollinator Prairie is free and open to the public from sunrise to sunset every day of the year and includes an accessible trail that winds around four native plant gardens.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;For more information on the Wonders of Discovery Event or the Pollinator Prairie, you can check out the Pollinator Prairie &amp;ndash; Olathe KS page on Facebook and the Johnson County K-State Extension website.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this engaging and practical session, our neuroscience experts will break down the science behind mental fitness and sleep, highlighting how cognitive stimulation, purposeful activity, and high-quality rest work together to strengthen memory, improve focus, and support long-term brain health. You&amp;rsquo;ll learn how sleep impacts memory consolidation, toxin clearance in the brain, emotional regulation, and overall cognitive performance &amp;mdash; and why protecting your sleep may be one of the most important investments you can make in your future brain health.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Attendees will walk away with actionable strategies to sharpen mental resilience, build brain-boosting daily habits, and improve sleep quality &amp;mdash; along with practical tools you can begin using right away. Whether you&amp;rsquo;re looking to stay mentally sharp, enhance your performance, or reduce your risk of cognitive decline, this session will equip you with the knowledge and inspiration to recharge your brain and think well for years to come.&lt;/p&gt;
