An interesting social life is enjoyed by the people of Beckville. There are occasional parties, usually given to celebrate a wedding or birthday. The old time square dance and play parties have disappeared.

Some people play bridge and groups of people often go on picnics especially during spring and summer months.

Youngsters enjoy swimming, horseback riding, roller-skating, slumber parties, and 4-H meetings. There are several 4-H groups in the Beckville School area. These clubs are involved in Livestock Shows, Food Shows, and other activities.

Meetings at churches, for regular services, school programs and plays are all well attended by the entire community. Fishing and hunting are favorite sports for a number of people.

The school age children are very enthusiastic about Little League. Girls from 5 to 14 can play summer ball and boys from 5 to 12. There is usually a boys’ and a girls’ Beckville team to play with the Carthage – Panola County Dixie League.

The social life of Beckville has been a strong bond of love and friendship to the members of the community over the years.
