After 9 years with Irwin, we’re excited to celebrate Cheryl Kooistra as she begins her well-deserved retirement. As our Hourly Payroll Administrator, Cheryl has been a trusted and essential resource for our hourly and production teams. Her attention to detail, consistency, and deep knowledge ensured employees were supported in ways that truly mattered. During our transition to UKG, Cheryl played a key role in guiding the organization through change, helping create a smooth and confident path forward. Cheryl’s impact reached far beyond payroll. She brought energy, personality, and heart to everything she did—from supporting event planning and contributing to Charity Team efforts to simply making the day a little more fun with music and positivity. She also brought honesty and authenticity to her work and her team. Cheryl wasn’t afraid to share her perspective, and that openness helped strengthen those around her and the way we work together. Cheryl has made a lasting impression on so many, not only as a teammate but as a true friend. Her support, kindness, and presence will be deeply missed across Irwin. Cheryl, thank you for everything you’ve given over the past 9 years. We wish you all the best in this next chapter and a joyful, fulfilling retirement!

We bring people together to create unforgettable experiences—and getting to do that right here in our hometown of Grand Rapids makes it even more meaningful. Thank you, Acrisure Amphitheater, for the opportunity. We can’t wait to see Grand Rapids come alive with the joy, music, and energy this space will bring for years to come.
Locally crafted seating brings Acrisure Amphitheater to life in the final stages of construction! 🚧 Grand Rapids' very own Irwin has provided the official seating inside the amphitheater– adding a deeper layer of community connection to the new venue. The 7,000 fixed seats were all produced right here in Grand Rapids, bringing local expertise to every part of the process. We're excited for patrons to experience their first memories in these seats, marking the beginning of a new era of live entertainment in Grand Rapids. 🎶 🔗 Read more about the local partnership: https://lnkd.in/gXNUvSEK

There’s nothing like seeing a space come to life. Proud to play a role in creating environments where fans don’t just watch the action — they feel like they are a part of it. From first pitch to final play, every seat matters. Great work by the team at Turner Construction Company bringing this vision together.
