We’re heading to the heart of Leavenworth this week as Sean chats with Janet Mano and Kevin Rieke.
Janet is a professional alphorn artist and the President of the Leavenworth Alphorns, while Kevin—a career entrepreneur and second-generation Leavenworth native—serves as an officer for the group. We dive into the rich culture of their community and what it takes to lead such a vibrant musical organization.
Speaking of leadership, the Leavenworth Alphorns were honored as AANA’s 2025 Organization of the Year! 🏆✨
