Well, when your meeting is only an hour long, you have to make every minute count. In my club, we have two hour long meetings, but we still have to be disciplined in how we structure our meetings.

Also, take a look at your current end time... 12:58pm ... 2 minutes to spare.

My view is to always try to give any extra or unstructured time to the Toastmaster since they are the person who is accountable for keeping the meeting on time. If they are given a little extra time, they can certainly cut that if needed to end on time.

What you could do is give the 2 minutes to the Toastmaster as part of the closing meeting item... maybe call it Toastmaster's Closing Remarks and Meeting Close or something nebulous like that. Or you could give the Presiding Officer an actual minute or two for any club business. In my club we also include getting people signed up for future meetings (we use a sign-up form) as part of "club business", so including a little time for that helps us.

Again, those are just some ideas from my experience. Use what you like, ignore what you don't. ;)
