I particularly want to thank all the sponsors who made it possible."  Tehrani added, "It was a delight to see Anoush Sadegh and Sepehr Rastifar from Mercedes-Benz of Encino spontaneously take the main stage in front of the cheering crowd to demonstrate a traditional Persian dance and hand out dozens of prizes, too."
