David Woods is an active member of both his church and community. In 1985, he
invested in a small Montgomery TV station, WCOV, and became a charter affiliate
of the FOX Network. In 2003, David’s peers recognized his business excellence
when they elected him President of the Alabama Broadcasters Association. During
his tenure as President, David was instrumental in the development of the Amber
Alert program for the State of Alabama.
David’s partnership with law enforcement doesn’t end there. His work, assisting
law enforcement officials in their efforts to protect our community and keep
criminals off the street, has led to numerous awards. In May of 2000, he was
awarded the City of Montgomery Citizen Service Medal by the Chief of Police
for his support of the Montgomery Police Department. In 2005, District Attorney
Ellen Brooks awarded David for his support of Crime Victims Rights. Governor
Bob Riley and Attorney General Troy King recognized David for his efforts in
supporting public safety officers.
Since 2000, David has gone on several church mission trips visiting Ecuador, the
Dominican Republic, Haiti, and Honduras. Doing volunteer work is something
that energizes David, and he feels spending time with those in need makes a lasting
impact. On his last trip, he spent a week in Honduras at an orphanage home for
boys with Forgotten Children Ministries.
David was born and raised in Dothan, and in 1983 he married his sweetheart
Donna Scarborough. Together they have 3 children: David 23, Drew 21, and
Dana 19. They are very active in St. James Methodist Church of Montgomery
where David has served on the board for 7 years. He has also tried to share his
faith with today’s youth by teaching Sunday school.
