Splitting 250 tickets between sellers
Open Seller books and tracking sheet, set 25 tickets per book and tick Print the book number on each stub. Book 1 is 001–025, book 2 is 026–050, and so on up to book 10 (226–250). Download the seller log and write each volunteer's name next to their book when you hand it out. When books come back, count sold and unsold tickets against the cash before the draw.
Keeping the stubs safe
Ask sellers to return stubs and cash together in an envelope marked with their book number. Put stubs in the drum only after the book has been reconciled, so an unpaid ticket can't win.
