Aventura Summer Camp 2021
Sunny Isles Beach By Mayor George “Bud” Scholl
Effective immediately, the City of Sunny Isles Beach is no longer enforcing COVID-19 guidelines on private property. As stated in the Governor’s Executive Order 21-102, we cannot enforce any previous guidelines and restrictions for local businesses. However, we still encourage and expect all businesses to continue being conscientious in their practices and following CDC guidelines as they relate to COVID-19. Our City operations will remain in place and are not affected by the order. On all Cityowned property, including the Government Center and parks, we are following the guidance of the CDC including social distancing, wearing facial coverings, and avoiding crowded areas. We do intend to reinstate some activities that were previously restricted, including returning to in-person Commission Meetings in June. Our local state of emergency is still in effect and we continue to promote best practices to keep our community safe. We encourage the entire Sunny Isles Beach community to remain vigilant in your safety practices because the threat of COVID-19 is still real and present. We must be conscious of those in our community who may not feel comfortable returning to normal and those who have not yet been vaccinated. Sunny Isles Beach, 6A

Now, at his second location in Hallandale Beach at the site of

the former Sage Deli, that slogan is emblazoned on the walls. Here, with his new enlarged wide-mouthed ovens, Mo’s bakers are able to produce hundreds of dozens of bagels a day. Mo Mohamed exemplifies the American Dream. He arrived from Egypt in 1984 as a young guy in pursuit of opportunity, with not too much more than hope in his pocket, a smile, and a great work ethic. He began working as a dishwasher, then a busboy in Pumpernik’s, then on Hallandale Beach Boulevard. In a short time, he moved up to learning the delicate slicing techniques of lox and
deli meats, and within the seven years he was there, acquired skills in cooking, purchasing, and management. Building a reputation as a man who knows the deli business, which is unlike any other type of restaurant, Mo was approached by Harriet and Marie, owners of Bagel Cove to help them build their business. They offered him a junior partnership and a large increase in salary, plus a percentage of the profits. Mo says he owes a lot to them and is very grateful for the
