Over 35 years ago, Tom Goodman came to Vernal and built a McDonald’s store on the West edge of Vernal, almost out of town. After operating the store for 35 years Jill Goodman recently retired and sold to the Parrish family, owners of several McDonald Stores in the state of Utah. Robert Parish and his family moved here in March this year to make Vernal their home and operate the Vernal and Roosevelt McDonald’s.
Since the beginning, McDonald’s has been actively involved in the community supporting many activities and events including providing food cards for many High School and Youth Group activities, providing food and water for the Dollar Ridge Fire, assisting Turning Point Shelter and Shop with a Cop and are active members of the Vernal Area Chamber of Commerce.
Robert says they are continually developing their crews and managers. They provided employment opportunities for many people including those looking for their first job and persons with disabilities. Recently they hired a new general manager, Julia Rountree, who has lived in the Uintah Basin most of her life and has been a great asset to the team.
For their long term presence and commitment to our community, the Public Relations Committee of the Vernal Area Chamber of Commerce is please to present McDonald’s, Business of the Month.
