Heavyweight Champion of Christmas Lights Returns

In case you haven’t seen it from space yet, the undisputed heavyweight champion of Christmas lights near IB are on display again at the corner of Atwater Street and Coronado Avenue.

Stand by the home for more than five minutes in the evening and you're bound to see people who came to the street specifically for Arcelie Climkscales' lights.

Climkscales told Patch last year she had more than 35,000 lights in her front yard that costs hundreds of dollars a week in electricity to maintain.
