Councilor Woods passionately believes that there are creative opportunities to attract and sustain businesses in District 1. He is a strong advocate for rebuilding communities by implementing effective and sustainable economic and educational opportunities. He believes that strengthening the schools will play a significant role in reversing the negative trend of residents leaving the city. “We must fight to create safe communities, where our children can get a quality education, and our families have access to quality businesses.” Woods possesses a unique skill set and believes he can play an integral role in achieving this vision.

Woods serves on the advisory board for Mission Increase Central AL, which is a non-profit organization that provides free fundraising and organizational training to non-profit organizations throughout central Alabama. Mission Increase has been impactful in building the non-profit community throughout the country and Councilor Woods is excited about what Mission Increase can accomplish in Birmingham.

When George and Martha invite a new faculty member and his wife back to their house after a stuffy campus gathering, no one knows what lies ahead. *Some mature content “a wry and electric evening in the theatre” Howard Taubman, New York Times

Are you ready for a good comedy play? Well, "Dearly Departed" will be at Homewood Theatre (in beautiful downtown Homewood, AL) April 3-13 and it's going to be a laugh riot!
In February, Homewood Theatre brought you "Dearly Beloved", a play about a wedding gone awry. Now, we bring you an uproarious comedy, "Dearly Departed", that examines that event that awaits all of us... eventually.
This play follows a beleaguered family that proves that living and dying in the South are seldom tidy, but always hilarious. Despite their earnest efforts to pull themselves together for their father’s funeral, mounting bills, bouts of excessive eating, and suspected infidelity keep bringing laughs to the solemn occasion. One character finally says to his wife, “When I die, don’t tell nobody. Just bury me in the backyard and tell everybody I left you!” If you've ever gotten the giggles at a sensitive time, this show is for you!
Tickets are only $25. So, just below to get yours! https://ci.ovationtix.com/35375/production/1198661
