Clover Hill Swimming Club was located in Millington. The club lost a 1966 civil rights case, Clover Hill Swimming Club v. Robert F. Goldsboro.[7] The club was sued by an African American veterinarian who said he was denied membership because of his race. The club claimed that because it was private, the Law of Discrimination did not apply and therefore it could pick its own membership. After the Clover Hill Swimming Club appealed the first decision, the Supreme Court of New Jersey again sided with the plaintiff.[8]
Students in public school attend the Long Hill Township School System for grades K-8 and attend Watchung Hills Regional High School in Somerset County for grades 9-12. Millington School is the only active school still located in the town. It houses grades 2-5 and had an enrollment of 505 students as of the 2005-06 school year.[12]
The Town Hall used to be used as the old school house of the town, originally built in the 19th century.
Hillview Farms has new tractors, but when old tractors become obsolete, they are kept as historical pieces.
