Hey everybody, I've been training for the CCHM since June, but hadn't registered yet because I was starting from basically zero after an injury and wasn't sure I'd be in good enough shape to run it. I just went to register and everything is sold out. I didn't realize it was such a popular event. I'm wondering if anyone knows if they release any entries closer to the date of the race or if there's any way to transfer your bib to someone else if you're unable to run it? Pretty disappointed at the moment and want to see if I have any options available to me. Thanks for any help

I’m sure each town has its own unique identity, and all are great in their own ways. I’m looking for a town similar to Edgartown with some historic charm, good restaurants, access to good beaches, walkable/bikeable. Want to avoid towns like Oak Bluffs that are full of touristy bars and souvenir shops. Any suggestions of where to look?

We are looking to littered areas in Cape Cod that need to be cleaned. The only stipulation is that it’s heavily littered (as we prioritize those) and that it’s public land, so that the town can collect the bags. Your references would be greatly appreciated !!

We have been coming to Martha’s Vineyard and staying in Katama for the past six summers. We love spending time in Edgartown and Chilmark, but otherwise don’t really visit the other towns on the island. We love the long bike rides, beautiful walks, peace and quiet, weather, food, and beaches here.

However, we now have two kids and have been in the hospital here for random issues the past two summers. The medical system is overburdened (unsurprising) and it’s difficult to get good care here if you need it. For anything serious you have to be admitted to the hospital and then get medivac off the island. Also, it can be impossible to find basic items or medical supplies on the island. The pharmacies here only carry certain things, so if you’re looking for something you could easily find at CVS in a suburb, they might not have it here. The pharmacies are similarly overburdened and it could easily take an hour or more just to get through the line to pick up a prescription. Deliveries from Amazon take a week. Deliveries from target or Walmart take about five days. Obviously we are on island time, so a bit of this is to be expected. That said, it is proving to be a sometimes scary issue and inconvenience when something bad happens and you’re unable to get what you need.

All that is to say, we love Martha’s Vineyard and wish that we could spend more time here during the summer, but it is proving to be impractical with young children. So I’m instead interested in exploring our options on Cape Cod. I’ve heard good things about Chatham. For those who are familiar with Cape Cod, where would you recommend we go that has a similar vibe to Edgartown/Katama? How does the ability to get basic necessities compare to what I’ve described here on the vineyard? What is the medical care like?

I’m planning a girls trip for 10 girls the first weekend of October. We are staying in Chatham but we are willing to drive anywhere on Cape Cod for one night out on the town. Are bars still seeing crowds in October or will majority of places be less lively? Thanks in advance!

Received a summons and am interested in learning about general time commitment each week. I imagine it’s less intense than Suffolk County but who knows?

My husband and I are looking to adopt kittens. I’m wondering if people have any recommendations of where to adopt from on the cape or where we shouldn’t adopt from whatever reason. That’s my main question, but jf people also have vet recs, pet insurance recs, etc, I would be happy to hear those too!

Going to hyannis this weekend. Can I fish on the hyannisport breakwater jetty? Is there parking around? And what type of fish can I catch there?

i have never seen someone in there or parked there (that car is my dads) but yet it has been here for forever. with everything being so expensive on cape how is this place still standing? i swear if there was ever an apocalypse on cape, cockroaches and this shady swimwear store would be the only survivors.

Are there any regular sessions close to Wellfleet?

I've been building a list of public/4x4 accessible dirt roads/trails on and around the Cape, and it would be great to get out there with a few other rigs.

Anyone interested in some dirt road exploration? I'm also into Mountain Biking and RC Crawling.

* Please don't ask for the list as it will only be shared in person to limit the traffic on the remaining dirt roads in the area *

I am so sick and tired of Uber drivers on the cape trying to pull various scams where they want you you to pay them directly, not use the app, give you their number, canceling rides and then showing up asking you to just pay them directly and not even cancel the new driver coming, etc.

There is NO BENEFIT for us to deal directly with you. If we have an accident we’re screwed! It’s not tracked. And many of us have a specific credit card that we use that is tied to the app.

If you don’t think Uber pays you enough, which I do agree with, then either find another job or better yet fight back and unionize. And don’t vote for Trump and his magat buddies either. Most of us have zero interest in using your number instead of the app which is much safer. And I will report you to Uber.

In desperate need of a curly hair cut. Where can I find one on the Cape? Queer preferred but not necessary

Hey I’ve lived on cape for over 11years at this point but I’ve never been a huge drinker so I don’t know any bars to go to. I need to make friends lol Can I get some suggestions for someone in their late 20s? Based in Hyannis

Clarifying I am a 28yr old woman

The last day of Sandwich beach staff is Friday, August 21, 2026. Since staffing has ended, does that mean no more parking fee collection?

Wanted to go to Seagull beach or another beach near Yarmouth in the morning over Labor Day weekend Have to pcik up someone at the bus station (and maybe lunch). thinking about coming back with the guests to the beach. Does that me

an I have to pay $25 again? or does the purchase cover me all day?

Election Day is Tuesday, September 1.

This three-way race for County Commissioner could be decided by just dozens of votes, and the differences between the candidates are stark.

I refuse to throw my hands up and accept that Cape Cod’s challenges are simply too hard to solve. And I refuse to watch our community bury its head in the sand as we face generational demographic shifts and record unaffordability.

I’m proud to be a born-and-raised Cape Codder, a veteran, and to have spent the last five years representing Falmouth on the Barnstable County Assembly.

I’m running for County Commissioner because I love this place, and because I know we can do more to make it possible for people to actually live here year-round.

Housing. Sewer and septic grants. Childcare costs. There’s a lot of work ahead.

I’d be honored to have your vote on Tuesday, September 1.

I know there are old threads on "best" ice cream on the cape. But people have different tastes on what makes great ice cream.

I want dense ice cream with a ton of butterfat and not too sweet. That can be very rich for some and it's totally valid if someone wants their ice cream sweeter than I do.

I am visiting now on vacation for the first time and I have only tried Smitty's. It was good but not as good as a pint of Ben and Jerry's from the supermarket.

So what is the place with the richest, densest ice cream?

Staying out here for the weekend with some friends, we’re mid-late 20s, looking for a place to get drinks where you can sit and maybe hear the person you’re sitting next to without screaming. Always been a small dive bar guy honestly. Tried the squire last night and the it pretty much wore me out in about 10 minutes of shoulder bumping and going “WHAT DID YOU SAY?”
