I believe the mileage is tax deductible, since they have non-profit designation. Doesn't help you much if you don't do itemized taxes though. (BTW - you can probably recover mileage on your taxes from some of your volunteer cave projects)
I agree with others though - it would have been good to offer discounts or a free pass to the volunteers. Heck, at all the big music festivals you can volunteer a few hours a day in return for a free ticket (bonnaroo, glastonbury, coachella).

Anyway, thanks for your hard work. Geary
