VisitRochester has launched a campaign to attract Canadian travellers beyond Buffalo and into Rochester, the Finger Lakes and Genesee Valley.

The campaign features a new interactive website created specifically for Canadian travellers coming to the Rochester area,

The cooperative program titled "A Welcome Surprise" will continue through December.

Rochester and neighbouring partners are a brief 90-minute drive from the border.

VisitRochester believes this year's program may attract as many as 20,000 travellers during the last four months of the year.

Highlighted events include a free VIP coupon book for Waterloo Premium Outlets, a special price at Palm Island Indoor Water Park/Hotel and skiing at Bristol Mountain.
