Business of the Month Basin Appliance April 2024  Keith Foley purchased the Sears Catalog Store in 1983 and was located at 1218 West Hwy 40 here in Vernal for 8 years. In 1991 Keith built the current building and ran Sears until March 1993 when Sears closed all the catalog stores. Keith then decided to open a new appliance store to serve Vernal and the surrounding areas called Basin Appliance. This business was a family run business as the 4 Foley children grew up working in the business. At that time, they were selling great appliance brands like Maytag, Admiral & Jenn Air. The business evolved in 1994 into Basin Appliance & Floorcoverings. As the business branched out, so did the building to be able to offer more space for retail and warehouse space. In 2015 Keith & Al Jean Foley sold the business to their sons Carl & Corey, both of whom have spent most of their lives in the industry. With new owners, the store again changed and has branched out into many various home furnishing items and services such as: additional appliance brands, appliance service, and repair, all types of flooring and carpet, window coverings, cabinets built locally by Udell’s Custom Cabinets, countertops, seamless rain gutter, and carpet cleaning called Extreme Carpet Cleaning. Basin Appliance’s continued involvement in our community is evident in its continued support of many community events and organizations such as Thompson House of Hope for Men, The Vernal Hotel Haunt, the Annual Car Show, and many sports and school activities. Cory also serves on the Vernal City Council. As things have changed over the years one thing that remains the same is their commitment to customer satisfaction and quality products. Years ago, there was a jingle that accompanied our radio ads, ……” bringin' it all together…. That is what we do best!!” This year we are embarking on our 31st Anniversary and invite you to come join us for a free BBQ on April 26th here at our showroom. Big thanks to all of our loyal customers, employees, and vendors for helping us be successful all these years. The Public Relations Committee of the Vernal Area Chamber of Commerce is very pleased to present Business of the Month to Basin Appliance.

Stephanie’s dream became a reality shortly after her marriage to Garth. They officially started Pure Bliss Day Spa on November 1, 2015. Eight years later, they have grown and grown and are still going strong. They currently have seven active massage therapists, with 5 treatment rooms, including a large couple’s room to offer couples massages. Massages are by appointment only, Monday through Saturday. The staff at Pure Bliss also enjoy participating in various community events where they offer chair massages to the public.

Business of the Month November 2023 Dinosaur Inn and Suites Dinosaur Inn & Suites is a locally owned family run business in Vernal. Originally, in 1929, the owners of the property had cabins built so that travelers coming through the area could have a place to stay. Eventually, those cabins were torn down by the owners and the current buildings that sit on the property now were added through the years. After being run by the same family for three generations, the historic property unfortunately closed in 2016. The appeal of bringing this piece of history back to life and sharing all the amazing things there are to do in the area with travelers from all over the world encouraged Cody, who had worked in the oilfield for 17 years and wanted to be able to be home with his family more, to make a career change. Cody and Shalene Bullock, long time Vernal residents, decided to quit their jobs, buy, and reopen the property in October 2017. Shalene’s grandfather had been the head maintenance man for many years
