Fifty-something volunteers who want to get in shape and help kids get fit too are needed for CATCH Healthy Habits sessions starting Feb. 4 in Scottdale, Decatur and other metro Atlanta locations.

All training and program materials will be provided free of charge.

-- Tobie-Grant Manor Residences in Scottdale: Mondays 3-4 p.m.
