An anchoring system for a fence attaches to a portion of the fence and secures the fence to a subsurface to anchor the fence and thereby inhibit unwanted movement of the fence due to winds or other outside forces. The anchoring system has a stand that forms a base and a rigid pole extending upwardly from the stand. A top connector removably attaches the rigid pole to a portion of the fence and at least one in-ground anchor secures the stand to a subsurface.
