Livestock Show · Sabine County Expo Center

Framed student art and photography on display at the Show

“Most people, when they think of the county show, think of only farm animals. But, it is so much more than that. There is something for everyone! There is the Food Science division, Photography and Art, Public Speaking, Ag Mechanics, and yes, Livestock. Each division showcases kids' interests and prepares them for success through experiences.”

Meet the People Who Run the Show

Superintendents Who Show Up Year After Year

Every division runs because a volunteer superintendent decided it would. Here are three of them, in their own words.

Ken Kilcrease

Show Superintendent

Ken grew up in Pineland, showing animals and judging livestock and forestry through FFA at West Sabine High School. He carried that into a forestry services degree at Panola Junior College, then a 23 year career with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, finishing as a Dog Sergeant who trained hundreds of dogs statewide and managed the state’s kennels. Ken has been a Youth Foundation member since 2022, and what he loves most is helping students work through their livestock projects. He also sits on the Sabine County Go Texan Committee, which raises scholarship dollars for Sabine County youth through the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.

Larry Davis

Show Superintendent

Vo-ag and FFA shaped Larry’s values back in the late 1970s, and they shaped his manufacturing sales career after that. He moved to the Toledo Bend area two years ago and jumped straight in, helping chair the agricultural mechanics contest. Larry has directed the Gladewater Round-Up Rodeo for more than 20 years, and when he is not at the fairgrounds he is happiest on a horse, bass fishing, or just outside.

Kelli Williams Beall

Food Science Superintendent, Foundation Secretary

Kelli has lived in Sabine County her whole life. She and her husband, Carl Beall Jr., are raising three children, Cason, Camdyn, and Corbyn, through Hemphill ISD. She grew up in 4-H and FFA from kindergarten through high school, showing animals, running a horse project, and competing in FFA contests all the way to Pineywoods District and Area IX FFA Officer. Today she holds a bachelor’s and master’s in Accounting from SFA and works as Secretary and Accountant for the City of Hemphill, and she serves the Show as Food Science Superintendent while also holding the board’s Secretary seat. Her read on why this work matters: youth development teaches responsibility, leadership, and communication, the things that stick long after the ribbons come down.
