Tom beat me to it. Back in the mid '90s a friend and I gathered a lot
of interest in the club and local ham community by doing multi-op
efforts in SS, CQ WW, and IARU HF Championship. We never tackled ARRL
DX or WPX that I recall. These were all the SSB 'tests and we had
loads of fun. We had folk who helped with his station construction and
others who were happy to be observers.
Go ahead and do it! You'll have much fun and with gentle teaching and
coaching they'll have a rewarding experience.
