Our club has several thrusts that attempts the same thing
We meet each Wednesday, noon to about 1:30, for a Q&A session where any attending member can ask ANY question and we push for the new members to be active. We try hard to NOT let it become a meeting for the highly experienced members to dominate. We just added a large number of members and probably >60% are new to Mac so they are heavily involved.
In addition, we are in the midst of our annual, 10 weeks of 3 hour courses If you go to our site you will get to this page which shows the 9 different courses being taught this year

Our club really focuses on the new, inexperienced members as they need the most help

This grew out of a number of "Deer in the Headlights" looks from new people at our meetings. A few months ago, we started having our MacBeginnings the next evening after our regular meeting so we could set up our choir room once for 2 meetings. Works nicely. We run a 6 session cycle, so we get 2 cycles each year or so.
