Our interest groups

The Janet Overton Prime Time Sister Circle (JOPTSC) meets for brunch in the Terrace Dining Room in Clubhouse I on the second Saturday of each month.  Its purpose is to provide a space for LWAAAC women to meet and engage in a few moments of unstructured camaraderie.  

The group, which included the late LWAAAC president, Janet Overton, came into being after several LWAAAC members participated in the umbrella Prime Time Sister Circle during the pandemic.  PTSC is a 12-week program conducted by the Gaston & Porter Health Improvement Center under a grant from the Montgomery County Office of Grants Management; it is dedicated to the improvement of the overall health of African American women aged 40-75.  

Heeding the advice of the convenors, Janet began to bring the LW group together for monthly brunches.  These informal gatherings of as few as three and as many as eighteen women began to gather on the second Saturday of each month to enjoy spontaneous moments of friendship and fellowship—accompanied by food.     

Since Janet passed away in September 2024, the group continues to meet and agreed to formally name itself in gratitude for her coordination and in honor of her memory:  the Janet Overton Prime Time Sister Circle, JOPTSC.
