about our facility

The Burt J Asper Event Center is located on the premises of Post 46 of the American Legion in Chambersburg, PA on beautiful Philadelphia Ave.

The Burt J. Asper Event Center is conveniently situated between Chambersburg’s historic downtown business district and the campus of Wilson College.

The post was named after Chambersburg native Burt J. Asper. In 1918, Burt J. Asper, United States Naval Academy graduate class of 1911, was the ship’s surgeon for the U.S.S. Cyclops when it mysteriously vanished in the Bermuda Triangle. The auxiliary ship was delivering coal to Navy Warships and was last seen departing Rio de Janeiro for Baltimore. The ship was never found.
