When this year's Wilmington Catfish Days parade steps off at 1 p.m. Sunday, two of the people who helped preserve one of the city's most recognizable Route 66 landmarks will be leading the way.
The Catfish Days Committee has named Sharon and Jerry Gatties as the 2026 Catfish Days Parade grand marshals in conjunction with this year's theme, "Cruisin' Route 66," celebrating the 100th anniversary of America's famed Mother Road.
