At Haverstick Designs, we believe in problem-solving. We see problems, we get engaged, and we do what we can to solve them. We believe in this philosophy beyond where it applies to acoustics and our day-to-day projects.
This mindset is what inspired the Haverstick Designs ECHO Initiative:
Engaging Community through Humanitarian Outreach. With a wide variety of issues to tackle in the world, Haverstick Designs is committed to giving back and making an impact in the community.
Studio 33:3
Grand Rapids, MI — Grand Rapids First Church is proud to announce the official launch of Studio 33:3, a cutting-edge recording facility designed to empower worship leaders, creatives, and emerging artists. This visionary space was created in loving memory of Sarah J. Rijfkogel, the late daughter of Lead Pastors Sam and Brenda Rijfkogel. Sarah’s deep passion for worship inspired every detail of the studio, transforming her legacy into a living, breathing sanctuary of sound and spirit.
Crafted in collaboration with Haverstick Designs and outfitted with elite equipment curated by Vintage King, Studio 33:3 combines world-class acoustics with intentional design. The facility features a professionally treated live room, precision-tuned isolation booths, and a high-performance Dolby Atmos control room—an environment built not just for technical excellence, but for spiritual resonance.
“I just want to make sure the next generation knows Him and worships Him.”
– Sarah J. Rijfkogel
Heroes Camp
Heroes Camp is a daily Faith-based youth ministry serving young, fatherless men in Mishawaka, Indiana, free of charge. Pat Magley started Heroes Camp in 1989 with the challenge to the local kids – “beat me one-on-one in a game of basketball, I’ll buy you a brand-new pair of sneakers of your choice.” Over 60 kids took his challenge, and he used this opportunity to talk to them as a father would–giving life lessons in everything from identity, to hygiene, to effective communication, to leadership and respect.
In the beginning, his wife BJ would cook meals for all the young men, and Pat would lead them in Bible studies and life talks before having group workouts and basketball games. Their current facility houses three basketball courts, a kitchen, locker rooms, a barbershop, and now, a recording studio. Their studio, with help from Sweetwater Integration, will be stocked with professional equipment including Pro Tools, professional microphones, and a Dolby Atmos speaker system.
