A bunch of 222 EME ops are planning to be on  222.080 +/- experimenting and checking out their stations.  The Moon will be rising across the country at this time, so horizon only antenna systems can get in on some fun. You never know until you try, but I suspect many 222 ops can hear and possibly work other stations via the Moon route.    One long yagi and 100 watts can be successful with some stations. More power is obviously better.

I live in Maine, almost as far East as you can be in the USA. If activity starts at 2200 UT Friday, the Moon will be just rising in Ohio and any mid west hams could and should be listening and monitoring the HB9Q website/chat page.  Most activity is JT65B but other modes can and will be used as well. Just be sure that you are using WSJT-x .
