An apparatus for supporting non-rigid members comprising two collapsible poles, each pole comprising two tubes having substantially equal outside diameters, and joined by a connecting tube inserted inside. The connecting tube functions to secure the two tubes in coaxial alignment. A pair of earth anchors, attached to the assembled poles by guys and placed in a triangular relationship with the poles, supports the poles in a substantially vertical position. When the apparatus is in a collapsed state, the connecting tube, guys, and earth anchors can be conveniently fitted inside the two tubes to facilitate transport and storage.
