Hi Scott...

As this would be a club-station, the rules do prohibit this...  From the 
contest rules:

a. Club Station – There are two definitions for this category:

(1) A station operated by a single operator using a single transmitter 
operating from the same location using a club call sign throughout the 
duration of the contest or

(2) A station operated by multiple operators using a single transmitter or 
multiple transmitters while operating from the same location using a club 
call sign or a single call sign used to make all contacts throughout the 
duration of the contest.

As you can see, the rules require that the club station be operated from 
"the same location."

The rest of the family will be out of town.  I may be going along, I may
not.  If I stay behind, I'm in.  If not, I'll try to get on and give the
group a QSO from PA.

Also, I see nothing in the rules to prohibit operators from contributing to
the club effort from operating from home under their own calls after 5:00.
