Rochester Nestled on the banks of the Campaspe River, the area around Rochester was originally known as 'Yalooka'. Sitting on the floodway, Rochester is an agricultural community centred around dairying, tomato growing and meat production. In recent history, the Rochester Silo Art, Mural Festival and Sports Museum, have made Rochester a haven for tourists, who enjoy the many cafes, hotels and holiday parks during their stay. Rochester boasts a hospital, supermarket, primary and secondary school, many recreation facilities and streets of thriving small businesses. The town has been devastated by flooding in 2011 and 2022 and right now the residents are still suffering the after effects of over 800 homes being inundated. Some may not be able to return to their homes for 1-2 years, others may never return. This Ad Lab is to encourage geocachers into town to visit and spend some money., whether that be food, shopping, fuel or accomodation.
