Thank you again John. I’m not quite sure how/where to use the code you mentioned above. I tried replacing the other hook with this one:

function toind_alter_flexible_content( $field_group ) {
	//var_dump( $GLOBALS['post_type'] );
	if ( 'group_5c76d2e8213cf' === $field_group['key'] && 'event' == $GLOBALS['post_type'] ) {
		$field_group['menu_order'] = 7;
		$field_group['position']   = 'normal';
	}
	return $field_group;
}
add_filter( 'acf/validate_field_group', 'toind_alter_flexible_content' );

Which is not what you showed above, but I don’t understand where I would put that code that you showed and how I would work my alteration into the process.
The code above did get hit, but once again, no change in the position of the field group on the edit screen.
