• Refer to the organization as “Steel City Ambassadors Inc”.
• Refer to the drum corps as “Steel City Ambassadors Drum & Bugle Corps”. This can also be shortened to “Steel City” or "SCA".

• The following applies to all entity names:
  
  • If an entity name is used multiple times in written form, the full entity name is used for the first instance and the shortened version of the entity name is used from that point forward.
  • When the entity name begins a sentence, the optional use of “The” (capitalized) to begin the sentence is acceptable for the purpose of grammar and readability. And, when the entity is mid-sentence, the optional use of “the” (not capitalized) is acceptable for the purpose of grammar and readability.
  • An entity name that ends with an audible “s” is followed by “are” and not “is”. Currently, this would apply only to “Steel City Ambassadors are”. This would not apply to “Steel City Ambassadors Drum and Bugle Corps are” since “Corps” does not end with an audible “s”.
  • An entity name that ends with a written “s” should not include an apostrophe when written in the possessive, e.g., Steel City Ambassadors Drum & Bugle Corps’,
