She meansthe whole Cape, she added, not just Provinc- etown. The Chamber's ad, costing $900,needsthreeparticipants, McMenamy said, and already has two, "so I'm pretty sure it's going to fly." The Chamberitselfwillpro- mote its Smart Guide: Car- Free Links To and Around Cape Cod,Martha 's Vineyard and Nantucket.
