Did some quick research, and got input from several hams off-list. Came 
up with the following list:

146.55 (Primary)

146.58 (Primary)

147.58

146.46

146.42

We should also mention that the the National Simplex Frequency of 146.52 
is NOT allowed for contest contacts, or soliciting for contacts. It 
should be avoided.

On other VHF bands, look for FM activity on:

52.525

223.5

446.0

927.5

1294.5

Some of the five Two Meter frequencies may not work in your area. But at 
least one should work everywhere. Even one or two channels should handle 
contest traffic even in the biggest metro areas. So what does the group 
say? Show of hands? If we can agree on these frequencies, then we can 
turn our attention to getting the word out.
