It is our vision to have weatherproof signage constructed to share with the community this cemetery's history, a tribute to veterans, the rules of the cemetery, and a map of currently known burials, all of which support our cemetery preservation efforts and align with our fundraising projects. We also plan to utilize Ground Penetrating Radar to enhance our understanding of the site.

There are an unknown number of unmarked graves in Camp Polk Pioneer Cemetery, alongside headstones that suggest burials whose locations remain unidentified. To aid in cemetery preservation, Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is a non-invasive method employed to map sub-surface burials and other underground features. Utilizing this process would provide an accurate map of the burials present. By identifying and documenting these burials, GPR contributes significantly to the preservation of the cultural history of the site, which is essential in historic areas where records may be incomplete or lost. Furthermore, the data gathered could support future fundraising projects aimed at enhancing cemetery preservation efforts.
