Jane Leche
Other Forest Service
Jane has enjoyed being a Public Affairs Specialist with the US Forest Service and a friend of Smokey Bear for over 30 years. She currently works in Lakewood, CO but grew up on a small island in Washington State where she loved being outdoors – hiking, biking, horseback riding and going island hopping in a boat with her dad. For 18 years, Jane was the lead vocalist for the Fiddlin’ Foresters, the official old-time string band of the US Forest Service, and recorded the song “Smokey The Bear” to occasionally play as background music in the Smokey Bear Museum in Capitan, NM. She is also a lifetime performing member of the International Western Music Association and manages the Youth Chapter for young people who are interested in the music of the American West and land conservation.
